TITLE: A computer story

The development of computers is linked to
Maths. It’s possible to say that computers first
started with the invention of the abacus in
Babylonia (now Iraq) in the fourth century Bc.
Wilhelm Schickard, a German professor, built the
first calculator in 1623. But it only worked with
six numbers. The German Konrad Zuse made the
first modern calculator in 1941. Colossus was a
British computer which was used for breaking
codes. It began working in 1943.
The next step towards the modern computer was
the universal Automatic computer which was
developed in 1951. It could store 12,000
numbers and letters. In the 1960s a typical
the minicomputer cost around $20,000. Not many
people could buy a computer then. They were
too expensive. Word processing was invented in
1968 by Doug Engelbart.
The computer giant Microsoft began its life in the
1970s. By 1977, the computer company Apple
was selling computers for $1,195. The IBM
computer was released in 1981 and the Apple
Macintosh was on sale in 1984. The computer
program Microsoft Windows 1.0 was in the shops
in 1985. By 1989, Microsoft’s sales reached $1
billion.
