They do it on April Fool’s Day and roll out the Apple I, the first computer with a single-circuit board.
-
His team created C based on the earlier language BCPL and soon after re-wrote the source code for Unix in C. Unix was easily ported to other computers and spread swiftly. C is still widely used today.
-
It was a response to Apple’s GUI. Commodore unveiled the Amiga 1000, which featured advanced audio and video capabilities.
-
It advances the use of graphics and music on PCs.
