Who developed the first personal computer called the Altair?
Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS) - an American company based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.The Altair was created by Ed Roberts, owner of MITS, in Albequerque, New Mexico.Roberts asked Forrest Mims to write the manual for the Altair, but this was after Mims had left MITS.
What was the name of the computer kit offered by popular electronics that got people excited about personal computers?
That would be the Altair by MITS. Bill Gates and Paul Allen saw it and decided to write a BASIC interpreter for it to make it a little more accessible to the general public, and thus Microsoft was born. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak also got a glimpse of the Altair and believed everything about it was just plain wrong, and designed a personal computer of their own, forming Apple, the first PC they had created being the Apple I. Many years after the Altair debuted and Apple, Atari, Radio Shack and Tandy's PCs were getting popular, IBM jumped on the PC bandwagon and completely revolutionized the PC industry with the IBM PC, which set the stage for PCs like we usually know them today and was also responsible in part for Microsoft getting its monopoly. Today, almost every PC in the Market, even the Macs, are IBM PC Compatibles, meaning they run under the x86 architecture and are modular in design.
