PC is dead ?

Some Macintosh users may think PC is dead, of course...

But what I am talking about is more human. One of the PC inventors named Henry Edward Roberts died earlier this week.

In the 70s he designed the Altair 8800, known as the first "personal computer" (1976). altair_8800b.jpg

The legend says that even Bill Gates was inspired by Ed Robert's work.
