Do you own a PDA Personal Digital Assistant? Have you got a
personal computer? Have you ever used a laptop? The answer can be "Yes".
But do you know that the first computer was made about 70 years ago? It
was large enough to take up a living room. It was named ENIAC
Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator. Thanks to the development
of technology, computers become smaller and smaller. The first personal
computer was actually introduced in the 1970s by MITS, Apple Computer
and IBM. They didn't look exactly like now but they were surely
revolutionary at the time.

Scientists are finding ways to make computers as smaller and
slimmer as possible. Some of the today computers are small enough to
carry out in pockets. But technology doesn't stop there. They will continue
to bring out smaller computers. Who knows? Maybe one day we will not
need the big desktops or laptops. We may need a computer chip that is as
small as a fingernail.
