The first microprocessor created by Intel was the 4004. It was designed for a calculator, and in that time nobody imagined where it would lead.

A computer is a machine that takes input from the user and gives output. So, you give the computer a command and it follows it to produce a result.

Computers have a microprocessor that can make calculations instantly. Lots of things have microprocessors, such as your watch, your washing machine, your mouse and even your mobile.

Always we have been using the refresh option on Windows computers but then, What does a desktop refresh actually do? Refreshing the desktop simply redraws the icons on the desktop. That’s it!

It doesn’t refresh the RAM. It doesn’t clean your PC. It doesn’t refresh your computer the way it refreshes you when you wake up from a nap.

In 2005, Sony illegally installed rootkits on 22 million computers to prevent the users from ripping copyrighted music, and could not be uninstalled. It also reported user’s listening habits back to Sony. Ironically, the code itself contained open source software, and so infringed copyright.

It took Pixar 29 hours to render a single frame from Monster’s University. If done on a single CPU it would have taken 10,000 years to finish.

In 1960, the computer at NORAD warned with 99.9% certainty that the Soviets had just launched a full-scale missile attack against North America. NORAD later discovered that the Early Warning System in Greenland had interpreted the moon rising over Norway as a missile attack from Siberia.

The first webcam was used at Cambridge University. Its purpose was to monitor a coffee maker so they didn’t waste trips to an empty pot.
