    IBM released their first line of desktop PC, which used Intel 8088 chip as CPU. In 1983, IBM
                  introduced the PC-XT, which had more memory and more hard drive space.

                  In 1985, Microsoft released the first version of Microsoft Windows.

                                    VLSI called microprocessors invented.

                                    Small in size and could be placed on an office table.

                    Intel introduced the Intel 4004, the first microprocessor in 1971.

                  Fifth Generation (Present)

                  After 1986, the fifth generation of computer technology, based on
                  artificial intelligence, is still in development. They are more powerful
                  microprocessors to improve the speed, size, cost and performance
                  of computers. In 1997, Intel introduced the MMX microprocessors,
                  which were designed to improve game and multimedia performance.                         Laptop

                  Nowadays Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used to make the computers intelligent. The goal of
                  fifth-generation computing is to develop devices that will respond to natural language input
                  like Chatbots, Autocomplete, Autocorrect, Spellcheck, Search engines, etc.

                                    Use of artificial intelligence.

                                    Improved size, cost, speed and performance.
                                    New versions of GUI operating systems are developed.

                                    Development of Natural Language Processing.

                  CHARACTERISTICS OF A COMPUTER

                  A computer has several characteristics. Some of them are explained here.

                      Speed: A computer can process millions of instructions within  few seconds. The same
                     calculation that would have taken hours and days to complete can be completed in a few
                     seconds using a computer. The speed of a computer is calculated in terms of MIPS (Millions
                     of Instructions Per Second).
