CHAPTER THREE Computers for the Man in the Street arly in 1980, adverts began appearing in British newspapers Efor something rather unusual. Sandwiched between pages of economic and social troubles, Thatcherite politics and Cold War paranoia was an advert for a small white box. It looked a little like an overgrown calculator, but declared itself to be the Sinclair ZX80 Personal Computer, and could be bought, ready made, for just £ 99.95. Despite the implausibly low price, the ZX80 was not only a ‘ real computer ’ , but one that cut through computer ‘ mystique ’ to teach programming, and was so easy to use that ‘ inside a day you ’ ll be talking to it like an old friend’ , or so the advert said. It was an impressively crafted piece of marketing, creating an impression of aff ordability and accessibility, ideas hitherto rarely associated with computers. The little white box, and the bold claims that sold it, marked the beginning of a redefi nition of computers as aff ordable and everyday appliances for the masses. At the time microcomputers were broadly split between two basic types.

  • Calculator from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Calculator From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An electronic calculator is a small, portable electronic device used to perform both basic operations of arithmetic and complex mathematical operations. The first solid state electronic calculator was created in the 1960s, building on the extensive history of tools such as the abacus, developed around 2000 BC, and the mechanical calculator, developed in the 17th century. It was developed in parallel with the analog computers of the day. The pocket sized devices became available in the 1970s, especially after the first microprocessor developed by Intel for the Japanese calculator company Busicom. They later became commonly used within the Oil and Gas industry. An electronic pocket calculator with a LCD seven­ Modern electronic calculators vary from cheap, give­away, credit­card­ segment display, that can sized models to sturdy desktop models with built­in printers. They perform arithmetic became popular in the mid­1970s as integrated circuits made their size operations. and cost small. By the end of that decade, calculator prices had reduced to a point where a basic calculator was affordable to most and they became common in schools. Computer operating systems as far back as early Unix have included interactive calculator programs such as dc and hoc, and calculator functions are included in almost all PDA­type devices (save a few dedicated address book and dictionary devices). In addition to general purpose calculators, there are those designed for specific markets; for example, there are scientific calculators which include trigonometric and statistical calculations. Some calculators even have the ability to do computer algebra.

    Growin G pains: 1970–1979 he early 1970s saw high inflation, the oil price shock and industrial action by coal miners, which led to rolling power cuts and the three-day working week for the first months of 1974. Many companies struggled T to survive. But as the decade began, Cambridge Consultants was close to collapse for a different reason – despite the enthusiasm and technical brilliance of the people who worked there, a lack of management skills and business experience threatened the company’s survival. However, at the same time, two other companies, Metals Research and Sinclair Radionics, were riding high and new companies were being formed at an increasing rate. The development of the Cambridge Science Park also began to have an effect. By the end of the decade, things would look very different.
