    Extractions: The History of Computers, by Charles R. Hague Around 1976 the Personal Computer, or “PC” as it was instantly labeled, was born. The first computer you could just walk into a store and purchase was a TRS-80 Model I. It sold for about $700 and included a black and white monitor, keyboard, and a cassette tape recorder for storing programs and data. It had a memory capacity of a whopping 4K – about one full page of a text or 4,000 characters. Given that this computer was “state of the art”, I think it is reasonable to compare it to today’s state of the art PC. Comparing the TRS-80 to a modern PC: The TRS-80 Model I had a Black and white screen with a resolution of 64 X 48 "pixels". It had 4,000 characters of memory to hold programs and data. Storage of data and programs was on a cassette tape drive that was very slow, limited in storage space and sequential. Ability to upgrade was essentially non-existent. An optional printer allowed for crude black and white printing of text only. A modern PC has full color flat LCD screens taking up a fraction of the space while providing significantly larger displays. Capable of displaying millions of colors and resolutions in excess of 1,600 X 1200 are common. The computer itself typically has upwards of a gigabyte of memory, 128 additional megabytes for video memory. 100 gigabyte hard disks that operate at blinding speeds as well as DVD-ROMs that can also be written to. Today you can, for about $2,500, purchase a computer that I believe will have more computing power than all computers prior to 1976 combined! If you purchased a $300 computer today it would by itself, have more computer power than all the computer components of the Apollo space program – combined!

It was first described in 1837, but Babbage continued to work on the design until his death in 1871. Because of financial, political, and legal issues, the engine was never actually built. General-purpose computers that were logically comparable to the analytical engine ... Read more here: history of computers: Encyclopedia II - Analytical engine - Design Charles Babbage's first attempt at a mechanical computing device was the difference engine, a special-purpose computer designed to tabulate logarithms and trigonometric functions by evaluating approximating polynomials. As this project faltered for personal and political reasons, he realized that a much more general design was possible, he started work designing the analytical engine. The analytical engine was to be powered by a steam engine and would have been over 30 meters long and 10 meters wide. The input (programs and data) was ...

Computer games also are most preferred by the students rather than study their lessons. And most of their time is being utilized in computer rather than family and social activities. Respect of parents, elders and even teachers is lessen. A) Of course yes. The computer technology has put our morality and social responsibility upside down. Why blame children, anybody got acquainted with computer and more particular the Internet, has bleak future in respect of family and social life. We are not sure where we are heading but it seems that it is becoming a rat race until or unless something is done. My wife use to complain that her female friends and relatives are too busy with computer even to talk to her when she visits them. Now that she herself got taste of the computer games (from our daughters), she is slowly being devoured by the system itself and hardly moves away from that machine.

    Extractions: Enter your search terms Submit search form The development of the modern day computer was the result of advances in technologies and man's need to quantify. The abacus was one of the first counting machines. Papyrus helped early man to record language and numbers. Some of the earlier counting machines lacked the technology to make the design work. For instance, some had parts made of wood prior to metal manipulation and manufacturing. Imagine the wear on wooden gears. "Computer" may be defined as any programmable electronic device that can store, retrieve, and process data. The basic idea of computing develops in the 1200's when a Moslem cleric proposes solving problems with a series of written procedures. As early as the 1640's mechanical calculators are manufactured for sale. Records exist of earlier machines, but Blaise Pascal invents the first commercial calculator, a hand powered adding machine. Although attempts to multiply mechanically were made by Gottfried Liebnitz in the 1670s the first true multiplying calculator appears in Germany shortly before the American Revolution. In 1801 a Frenchman, Joseph-Marie Jacquard builds a loom that weaves by reading punched holes stored on small sheets of hardwood. These plates are then inserted into the loom which reads (retrieves) the pattern and creates(process) the weave. Powered by water, this "machine" came 140 years before the development of the modern computer.
