Since the early 1970’s the personal computer has continued to have major success in the computer market. People were fascinated with computers and the need for PC’s (personal computers) grew.
The first personal computer was created by Steve Jobs and Steve Woznak in 1976. Shortly after this in 1977 commodore, Apple, and Radio Shack made these devices available off the shelf to the consumer market. Prior to this consumers had the option of buying computer kits which basically walked you through building your own PC with enclosed components.
*As a side note the exact time of the invention of the computer can be debated. According to patent issued in 1972 the PC was born in Texas by Jack Frassanito.
