They didn't invent anything. The computer has been an evolution of the analytical machine first built in the 1830's, but was conceived of much earlier. They merely used already existing technologies to bring them together in a home garage to take the computer one step further in evolution. Yes, they were smart, and they beat companies that were already doing this to the punch. But, it was a far cry from "inventing." Sorry, just clarifying.
@Briar Lee is in the house!We discussed and solved that problem in the dormitory lobby too.
All thd world’s population could live in Texas in a new suburban home. There’s a lot of land in temperate climates.
Fertile farmland is so great overproduction and obesity is a serious problem. When I was in the dorm corn was used to feed cattle, and now 40% of a corn crop many times larger is used to make alcohol to burn in our cars , that get double the mileage, plus corn has steadily replaced cane sugar in the luxury foods that increase our girth.
Here’s why.
A bunch of smart kids invented personal computers fifty years ago.
The computer geeks in the dorm lobby predicted everything about on the money except one thing.
Who would have thought we’d type instead of talk on our pocket computers?.
Other kids are in dorm lobbies today.
They will invent things we can’t imagine.
Increases in knowledge stretch natural resources indefinitely.
There were computers in 1976.They didn't invent anything. The computer has been an evolution of the analytical machine first built in the 1830's, but was conceived of much earlier. They merely used already existing technologies to bring them together in a home garage to take the computer one step further in evolution.

That sir is probably the truest statement I've ever seen on this forum! Cheers!
