If 'peesee' doesn't just mean IBM-compatible, but covers all
microcomputers, then there were doxens od such machines. Off the top of
my head :
Science of Cambridge MK14
Sinclair ZX80
Acorn Suytem 1 (and all the way up to Systme 5)
Apricot (althogh some of the add-on boards did contain ASICs)
Tiger
PERQ AGW3300
Torch XXX
Jupiter Ace
Newbrain (or does the programmed COP420 keyboard controller count as an ASIC?)
