Abstract

Four years after the “birth” of the microprocessor in 1971, Fortune Magazine wrote the following about the effects of this technology on human life:

“The microprocessor is one of those rare innovations that simultaneously cuts manufacturing costs and adds to the value and capabilities of the product. As a result, the microprocessor has invaded a host of existing products and created new products never possible before.”
