The History of the Personal Computer
Project for AP American History documenting the history of the personal computer. Check out my latest project here: http://www.jaykaycomics.com.
This year will be the 30th anniversary of the original IBM Model 5150 Personal Computer, the very first “PC”. To celebrate, I pulled out my IBM PC, did some …
Video Rating: 4 / 5
ditto ..gahhh that bg music
The music can stay just, lower it a little bit, the music isn’t as important than the narrator.
Good video…would be great if that music in the background was quieter and didnt have lyrics…
The music is way too loud and distracting. I can’t hear what the narrator is saying… :/
Maybe you should just remove the music altogether. I’m not too sure why you would need it in a video like this.
or at least make it quieter.
:-J The Video is great, narration is interesting and there should be no music in such an informational video since this is not an action show
Fokking music…
FOR ALL OF YOU WHO WANT TO KNOW THE SONG BUT PRETEND TO HATE IT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE THE SONG IS CALLED TRIBULATIONS BY LCD SOUNDSYSTEM
the music wasnt a big deal jeez but does anyone know the song? its catchy
Please, remove the fucking music.
That’s right. A pity really because the documentary itself may be interesting; unfortunately, the music makes it unbearable to watch.

I turned on the CC only to find out that it too had no idea what he is saying through the music.
oh my god! i wached this on my PC!!!
The music towards the second half of the video is far too loud and makes it difficult to understand. Come on, I’m trying to do work on this.
R.I.P. Steve Jobs
Would have been better without the music.
The music wasn’t even that bad though…
You should have failed this report because of that background music being too loud. It’s not that the project was about being really good at video editing or anything like that but the general rule is if you are going to use video for a report, you can’t drown out the content with music so it can’t be heard.
I mean I can strain to hear it but it’s really tiring and I miss words and names here and there.
Also you have commercials with their own soundtrack on top of the music alreayd playing.
Digital Pulse Productions……
“DEISNING” the Future?
haha.. sorry.. 12 yr old here.. peace thanks for the informative vid anyway ^_^.. didnt mind the music.. but i guess twill be better without it.. or maybe another with a slower tempo
look up the Xerox 8010 Information System first computer with GUI
look up the Xerox 8010 Information System date first computer with GUI
like to point out one mistake that i notied the first gui was not apple it was Xerox with both apple and miscrsoft stole there idea from The GUI was first developed at Xerox PARC by Alan Kay, Larry Tesler, Dan Ingalls and a number of other researchers.
Holy crap! I know all gay people like techno music, and it’s totally cool that you’re gay, but I just want to learn about computers.
Awesome video!! I also really like the style of your Tandy 1000RL.
I’m saddened by IBM’ departure from the microcomputer market. IBM did build reliable (if expensive) machines and the company (while admittedly trying to be the only major computer player) did a lot of good during it’s history as well. I just feel that the market is diminished without IBM branded micros.
my old 30 mb drive makes a click when the heads park.
don’t you remember GEM?
Good god that’s an old version of MS Office
Maybe at 1 frame per 2 years.
VERY slowly. lol
er when I say earlier than that, I mean earlier than windows 1/2/3 . There was also a gui-like application back in the 70s mostly used on timeshare systems, but I forget the name of it.
And there were GUIs even earlier then that. QuickMenu and GEOS to name a few..both were kinda similar to windows in some respects and similar to the Mac/Lisa interface in others.
Nah, I’ll just keep to modern machines and stuff.
That would be fun, but he’s not into modern computers.
Maybe you should try to get a dead old computer and a new PC and DIY?
thank you for this video, it reminds me of the computers in the 80′s in high school. these machines back then to me were miracles of technology, nothing like them had ever existed before then. I found myself in awe of these machines. We have progressed so far in so short of a time. My quad core PC is light years ahead of the first machine you showed me and it would not be possible without these predecessors, these machines are like living things and what they do is still quite amazing to me.
The first really popular graphical interface for the PC was Windows 3.0, released in 1990.
Yeah DOS.Well yeah they weren’t popular.Still … does that interfaces looked and worked like Win95 lets say,or Win95 was the first?
You mean DOS (Disk Operating System), not BIOS… and there were graphical interfaces as far back as 1983 for the PC (look up the web site “The GUI Gallery”), but they weren’t popular.
Im born in the 1990 and only get a PC,a Pentium 1 in 2001 so i don’t know what was the things before that but i guess,computers till 1990 didn’t have a desktop like today,you could only work on them from BIOS … Am i right ?
What would make it really awesome would be if you left the floppy drives in there and just used an external DVD-ROM.
True. But if you took a case from one that’s not that special and did it… I don’t know…
Vintage computers have more value if you keep them original.
Why don’t you take a really old computer and put the latest stuff inside, you know, quad-core 3GHz+ i7 haswell or ivy bridge with 8 gigs of RAM+ etc?
One can interconnect these machines via parallel port using laplink or interlink.
you need to use a null-modem parallel cable – some wires are crossed linked.
