Personalni računar poznatiji kao PC slavi 30 godina postojanja

Titula "prvog kompjutera" pripada modelu Altair 8800, koji se pojavio pre tačno tri decenije u januarskom broju časopisa "Popular Electronics".

Kompletne komponente za prvi PC, čiji je tvorac Amerikanac Ed Roberts, prodavane su svojevremeno za 397 dolara, a potpuno sklopljena mašina koštala je za 498 dolara..

Model Altair 8800 nije imao ni monitor, ni tastaturu, ni stalnu memoriju. Za unošenje podataka, korisnik se služio prekidačima na prednjem delu mašine, a programiranje se obavljalo u binarnom kodu, koji je sad nepoznat, kako korisnicima PC-a, tako i programerima.

Preko niza svetlećih lampica na prednjoj strani, mogli su se pratiti rezulati rada programa. Takav kompjuter sa sada može videti samo u muzeju, a jedan primerak je izložen u Paderbornu.

Ne znam da li je to to. To svakako jeste kompjuter, ali da li je bas to prvi "personalni" kompjuter...

Was it the MITS Altair?
You're way off! The Altair, introduced in January 1975, was the first computer to be produced in fairly high quantity, and it was the first computer to run Microsoft software, but we're not sure that's a good thing.

Unfortunately for computer history buffs, the Altair is often mistakenly called the first personal computer by Microsoft-loving journalists who don't know any better.

Tamo je izlistano 15-tak razlicitih kompjutera i rezultat je:

Was it Simon?
BINGO! Edmund Berkeley first described Simon in his 1949 book, "Giant Brains, or Machines That Think" and went on to publish plans to build Simon in a series of Radio Electronics issues in 1950 and 1951.

Pa nije baš '78-me. Tomislav je u pravu, link koji je on dao upućuje na IBM PC (prvi koji je imao PC u svom imenu), računar sa intelovim 8088 procesorom na 4,77Mhz (0,00477 GHz ), 16kb RAM memorije (0,015625 Mb ).... bio je tu i neki floppy od 160kb čini mi se... Ostalo je istorija.

IBM PC - 24. avgusta 1981, ako se ne varam...

IBM celebrated the PC's 20th birthday in 2001. Many however consider the Altair 8800, introduced in the January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics, as the first Personal Computer and ancestor of the IBM PC.

MITS, a small Albuquerque company described in the January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics what today is considered the first PC. The Altair 8800 was announced as the "world's first minicomputer kit" and could be ordered and built for $397. The assembled model was offered for $498.

Ok,pogrešio sam u vezi godine.
Svejedno IBM je prvi uveo izraz Personal Computer.
