Information on computers that were developed in the early 1950s and 1960s?
god
How efficient are personal computers?
Because of dramatic improvements in computer components and manufacturing, personal computers do more than the largest computers of the mid-1960s at a fraction of the cost.
Due to a need for smaller and more powerful computers the what was invented and replaced transistor-based computers by the mid-1960s?
integrated circuit computer or microprocessor
What prevented computers from having an impact on everyday life in the 1960s?
In the 1960's - the majority of computers were owned by businesses - there were almost no terminals in domestic homes. Therefore there was no impact on everyday life.

one of them stated that computer will double in capacity and half in size every 2 years
Is laptop computer a type of analog computer?
No, a laptop is a kind of digital computer. Analogue computers used operational amplifiers in feedback loops to simulate dynamic systems such as aircraft. They began to be replaced by digital computers in the 1960s
Are most computers analog machines?
No, most computers today are digital machines. Digital computers operate using discrete binary data, represented as 0s and 1s. Analog computers, on the other hand, manipulate continuous physical quantities such as voltage, current, or mechanical motion. While analog computers were used in the past, the vast majority of computers in use today are digital.
Did the microchip lead to the development of personal computers?
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.
