  • Fourth Generation Computers: The Personal Computer

     Fourth Generation Computers: The Personal Computer
    personal computers now a days can be lap tops or desktops mostly half or more of the wol have laptops or desktops. there are 2 different types of laprops windows and mac, both are really good. computes now days dont have a huge mother board or monitor so it doesnt produce alot of heat, computers are way more updated sincee 1642.We know have tablets and cell phones witch are like mini computers. COMPUTERS ARE AWESOME!
