As we said, computers come in all different shapes and sizes.
Did you know that phones, I pads and tablets are all just different types of
computers!
First programmable computer, the Z1 was created by German Konrad Zuse in his
parents living room,
between 1936 and 1938. It is considered to be the first electromechanical binary
programmable computer, and the first really functional modern computer.
The computer has changed over time.

At the
core
of the computer is the
CPU
(central processing unit), the
source of
control
; it is the component that runs all
programs and
instructions. In order to
function
, computers use two types of memory:
primary and secondary
. Main
memory is primary storage; data and programs are stored
in secondary storage
.
The computer does its primary work in a part of the ma
chine we cannot
see, a control center that converts
data input to information output. This
control center, called the central processing unit
(CPU),
is a highly
complex, extensive set of electronic circuitry that executes stored program
instructions.
Who Invented the Laptop?
The laptop computer revolutionized the way people
work and travel nearly as much as the original computer did. Alan Kay, who worked
for Xerox
PARC, first created the concept for the laptop computer. He referred to it
as the Dynabook
The I
phone was released the 29 June 2007.
By late
2009, the iPad's release had been rumored for several years. Such
speculation mostly talked about "Apple's tablet"; specific names included iTablet
and iSlate. The iPad was announced on January 27, 2010, by Steve Jobs at an Apple
press conference at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.
It used the Windows XP Tablet operating
system. Unlike today, Microsoft didn't
manufacture the tablet itself. Lenovo produced the tablet in 2000 and other
partners, like Fujitsu, made the XP tablet in 2002
Christopher Latham Sholes. Christopher Latham Sholes (February 14, 1819 –
February 17, 1890) was an American inventor who invented the QWERTY
keyboard, and along with Frank Haven Hall, Samuel W. Soule, Carlos Gladden and
John Pratt, has been contended as one of the inventors of the first typewriter in the
United States .
QWERTY is a keyboard layout for Latin script. The name
