Show Notes

When computers were first created, they were enormous.
They would often take up the better part of a building, and they consumed large amounts of energy. 

Despite the size of these early computers, some people saw a future where computers would shrink down small enough that they could fit inside a person’s home. 

Some thought that idea was ridiculous. Not only was that prediction true, but it changed everything. 

Learn more about the history of personal computing and how it developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
