There is a big difference between a personal computer and a mainframe. A personal computer is what you're probably use to; a computer that lets you access the internet, run programs, edit documents, etc. A mainframe, on the other hand, is a much more powerful computer that is usually connected to a network. This kind of computer provides services for other computers on the network. It may store files, manage access to network resources like printers, or perform heavy-duty computational tasks. Since mainframes are usually accessed over a network, they do not usually need a keyboard, mouse, or screen of their own.

Were microcomputers a part of the first generation of computers?
No, the earliest computers (from the 1940s to the mid 1960s) were all mainframe computers. The first microcomputers were made in the early 1970s. However many of the earliest computers were much slower and had far less memory than the earliest microcomputers!

Micro-computer mainframe computer super computer?
micro computer is also known as personal computer... this type of computer available in our home...mainframe computer is very large storage computer. they can store very large amount of data.super computer is used in weather forecasting, in research fields, seismic modeling, nuclear weapon design, aircraft design, etc. super computer can do calculations at least 10 times faster than fastest available regular computer........... this is typically very costly....... yesterday's supercomputer is often out performed by today's computer and therefore new super computers must be designed and built that are at least 10 times faster than today's computer.........super micro computers are the super computers of the micro computers. though often used by the same users that use super computers, their main users are game players. their realistic 3D rendered action games require far more processing power than an ordinary micro computer has, but they could never afford a mainframe or super computer nor could they fit one in their house. high end dedicated game consoles usually contain a dedicated super micro computer!
