The birth of home computer (Picture Above a Famous Sinclair ZX Spectrum) although at the beginning is a costly affair, not everyone can afforded one. In its early years fortune have been made and lost through the sudden boom and crash in microcomputer sales.
Once the price of a computer had dropped to about the price of a TV set, thousands of people flocked to buy one. When the boom is over, the computers lie forgotten in cupboards in many homes. And, in some offices, microcomputers that were expected to solve all the problems of the company have hardly ever been used. Yet elsewhere, computers are hard at work, performing a vast range of tasks.
At the beginning promises, yes....promises. Do you like hang gliding, sailing, flying or golf?.
Whatever your field of interest, the computer will enable you to enjoy it without leaving your home. Well, may be!
The dramatic drop in prices that caused the home computer boom in early 1980s.
Actually what the computer promises in 80's still more or less haven't come true. Although graphics and sound, along with all gadget that can be connected to computer have improved tremendously but it'll never get closer to total realism or will it be in next decade...or how many decades it will be soon. See ya....
