It is considered to be the first electromechanical binary programmable computer, and the first really functional modern computer. The computer has changed over time. SEE !

  5. Saving information • At the core of the computer is the CPU (central processing unit), the source of control; it is the component that runs all programs and instructions. In order to function, computers use two types of memory: primary and secondary. Main memory is primary storage; data and programs are stored in secondary storage.

  6. The computer brain The computer does its primary work in a part of the machine we cannot see, a control center that converts data input to information output. This control center, called the central processing unit (CPU), is a highly complex, extensive set of electronic circuitry that executes stored program instructions.

  7. The laptop • Who Invented the Laptop? The laptop computer revolutionized the way people work and travel nearly as much as the original computer did. Alan Kay, who worked for Xerox PARC, first created the concept for the laptop computer. He referred to it as the Dynabook
