I believe its true.
Computers need a processor. The early processors were made using separate components, logic gate ICs and transistors.
They became MICROprocessors when all the logic gates and components were combined onto a single silicone chip, as a dedicated processor.
Colossus Mark II, an improvement on Colossus Mark I which was designed to crack the Germans' code during WWII in 1943/1944.
no
Early computers were placed in 2 categories, allowing them to be optimized to their user's needs:scientific - these computers had large fixed wordsizes(e.g. 24 bits, 36 bits, 40 bits, 48 bits, 60 bits) and their memory could generally only be addressed to the word, no smaller sized entity could be addressed.business - these computers addressed memory by characters (e.g. 6 bits), if they supported the concept of words at all the machine usually had a variable wordlength that the programmer could specify in someway according to the needs of the program. Their memory was addressed to the character.This was true for both first and second generation computers, but in the third generation computer manufacturers decided to unify the 2 categories of computers to reduce the number of different architectures they had to support. IBM with the introduction of the System/360 in 1964 introduced the concept of thebyte (8 bits) as an independently addressable part of a large fixed word (32 bits). Other computer manufacturers soon followed this practice too.
no
it was introduced first by Philips.
The computers name must be unique for all computers on the same network
The original recording is the source for all copies. That is the master. At first thought, one might theorize that all copies of DVDs and CDs for that matter are the master, since digital information does not degrade from generation to generation. This however is only true if all copies from the true master are processed digitally.
Mendel used true breeding plants in the P generation to establish a consistent genetic background for his experiments. True breeding plants produce offspring with the same traits when self-fertilized, allowing Mendel to control the genetic makeup of the parent generation and achieve predictable results in his crosses.
Super computers have existed since the beginning of commuting.
Perhaps. Computers have shown that it is true for some pretty large numbers, but you need to remember that there are an infinite number more out there. It hasn't been proved true yet, nor has there been a counterexample. Of course, theoretically the conjecture could be true, yet unprovable (see Godel's Incompleteness Theorem)
No
Actually that would be true. The Spanish did first settle California. glad i could help ;)
yes it is true
A hacker is a programmer who enjoys the challenge of breaking into other computers but does no harm, true hackers have a code of ethics and look down upon crackers.
Urban legends are not true. Urban legends are stories that have been past on from generation to generation. They consist of myth and sometimes horror. The term "urban" is used to differentiate modern legend from traditional folklore in pre-industrial times and does not refer to an urban area. This is a term that has been used since 1968. The most common Internet source of debunking "urban legends" is snopes.com.
Yes, it is true :) June 30 2008 Yes it is true and they are expecting their first child.
No, spontaneous generation does not occur.
