The '''Multimedia PC''' ('''MPC''') is a recommended configuration for a [[personal computer]] (PC) with a [[CD-ROM]] drive. The standard was set and named by the '''Multimedia PC Marketing Council''' (MPMC), which was a working group of the [[Software Publishers Association]] (SPA, now the [[Software and Information Industry Association]]). The MPMC comprised companies including [[Microsoft]], [[Creative Labs]], [[Dell]], [[Gateway, Inc.|Gateway]], and [[Fujitsu]]. Any PC with the required standards could be called an "MPC" by licensing the use of the logo from the SPA.
