How Computers Changed

Long ago:

  • Abacus – counting with beads

1960s:

  • Big computers – size of a room

1980s:

  • Personal computers – on desks at home

1990s:

  • Laptops – portable computers

2000s:

  • Smartphones – mini computers we carry

Each one got smaller and did more things!

Exercise 2:

  1. Circle the oldest: Abacus / Laptop / Smartphone

What can a smartphone do that an abacus cannot?
