Evolution of the computer

Components of the computer



The first home computer system was introduced in 1977 and was becoming rather popular in the 80s.
Their most common use was gaming. Being the first computer ever created it lacked components such as graphic detail (refer to image 1.1)



                                                                    (image 1.1)

The interesting part begins. Comparing today's components against the older versions one must not miss the basics i.e.Random Access Memory (RAM), Central Processing Unit(CPU), Storage device(Hard disk). All these parts are connected to the motherboard via cables. To view the actual product of those mentioned earlier a video card must be installed on the motherboard so it can be displayed on a monitor.These components help enhance Graphic detail.
