The computer has been very useful to us since the very beggining of its time. It helps make work faster and easier. It is a programable machine which receives and stores data to make an output.
The First Programmable Computer
Originally named the Z1 began development in 1936 by Germany’s Konrad Zuse in his parents living room and today is considered the first electrical binary programmable computer. The Z1 had 64-word memory (each word contained 22 bits) and a clock speed of 1Hz. To program the the Z1 required that the user insert punch tape into a punch tape reader and all output was also generated through punch tape.
The First Portable Computer (laptop)
The first truly portable computer or laptop is considered to be the Osborne I, which was released on April 1981. The Osborne I was developed by Adam Osborne and weighed 24 pounds, had a 5-inch display, 64 KB of memory, two 5 1/4” floppy drives, and a modem.
