Intel's introduction of single chip microprocessors containing the complete CPU of a computer on one monolithic integrated circuit, starting with their four bit 4004 microprocessor in 1971 followed by their eight bit 8008 microprocessor in 1972. Interestingly both of these microprocessors were originally designed as proprietary products to be sold only to the customer that requested them, while the 4004 was indeed used in the product it was designed for (a business desk calculator) the customer became dissatisfied and agreed to sign the rights back to Intel to sell the 4004 on their own, but the 8008 (and a similar chip designed by Texas Instruments at the same time) was completely rejected and the customer built his product using just standard 7400 series TTL chips so Intel was free to sell the 8008 on their own.
The 8008 eventually lead to the 8080, the modern 80x86 family (including Pentium, Celeron, etc.), and the latest Duo Core, i5, i7, and other multicore Intel microprocessors.
Home computers were introduced in the 1970s. The first personal computer, the Kenbak-1, was introduced in 1971 for $750. Take a look at the following site for an interesting timeline: http://www.computerhistory.org/timeline/?category=cmptr
After the microprocessor was developed in the 1970s.

No, microchips made missile guidance computers possible in the early 1960s. The microprocessor (a specific type of microchip containing a complete CPU) made microcomputers possible in the early 1970s and when microprocessors became powerful enough in the early 1980s, the first personal computers.
Perhaps the floppy disk and floppy disk drive. IBM introduced it (8 inch disks) in 1971 for the System 370 to boot (µIPL in IBM terminology) the microcode store. These floppies were read-only by the 370.

no, he was introduced in the late 1980s
Late 1970s I think
The 1960s and 1970s
After the microprocessor was developed in the 1970s.
Alan Turing's experiments in the 1940s were a forerunner of computers. The computers built in the 1970s functioned like today's computers but were much bigger.
they had the same pets, however pet rocks were introduced

Anger management as a formal psychological intervention was first introduced in the 1970s by clinical psychologists and therapists. It gained popularity as a way to help individuals better understand and control their anger responses.
The concept of a BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) was first introduced in the early 1970s by IBM for their System/370 mainframes. It later evolved to become a standard component in personal computers for managing hardware initialization and boot processes.
