how invented fourth genration computer
Answers
Answer:
Intel 4004
The idea of computer technology took a big turn with the invention of microprocessors and VLSI technology (very large scale integration). They were the introduction to modern day computers by basically being a computer's entire Central Processing Unit (CPU) on one integrated circuit. They're actually just extremely complex and intricate integrated circuits. The first microprocessor was first introduced in 1971 by Intel, invented by their employee Ted Hoff. They named it the Intel 4004; the first computer on a chip. These chips made it possible for computers to fit on a desktop.
ALTAIR 8800; the First Personal Computer
ALTAIR 8800, 1975
MITS' ALTAIR 8800 is credited as one of the first microcomputers. It was produced in 1975 by Micro Instrumentation Telemetry Systems labeled as a personal computer; PC. Ed Roberts, the head of MITS, designed it using a Intel 8080 CPU chip (first 16- bit microprocessor) and a sleek metal case. Once a monitor and keyboard were sold with it, the sales increased greatly. It was the initial influence of personal computing in the world. You could run BASIC language on it, written by Bill Gates and Paul Allen sold as "Altair BASIC" which became their company's, Microsoft's, first product. The computer sold very well for an amount of time, but then, MITS was sold to a company called Pertec in 1976. The ALTAIR seemed to disappear into history.
