-
computer hardware engineering began when John Vincent and Clifford berry began developing the first computer
-
The two engineers had built the first computer
-
This device created a few years after the first computer allowed computers to switch electronic signals and messages
-
In the late 1940s the creators after finishing the computer contemplated discarding it c=because it seemed yet useless at the time
-
A silicon casing was created to not only keep the parts from touching things it shouldn't but it also kept the parts from rusting so quickly
-
created using both advancements before it, this was made to be more compact and allowed computers to be used at a higher magnitude
-
John and berry fought with other team members on who had contributed the most overall trying to figure out who essential created the computer
-
The modern personal computer or (PC) was created for the everyday person for individual use hints the name personal it wasn't as expensive and was much smaller
-
The single chip microprocessor is an integrated processor made to be compact but still have the functions of its predecessors
-
The official patent for the two inventors wasn't given to them until 1973 after someone attempted to take credit.
-
John was given the award for technology by George bush in November of 1990
-
John passed away in 1995 due to old age
-
In 1997 many engineers and scientist came together and created a replica of the first computer which took 3 years to complete
-
more career opened in this field and programs began to give jobs to engineers
