The computer history timeline that is the foundation for the history of the PC begins way back in the 1930's The PC, or personal computer, has revolutionized today’s society in several different ways. When computers first came on the scene and started being used to help the government and businesses work more efficiently, this was seen as a major step forward in technology. At first, however, nobody dreamed that the computer would find its way into our homes, where it would help to change the way people communicated, sought information, purchased goods, and took care of everyday tasks.
