When and where was the very first PC invented?

Who invented the first IBM PC for msdos?

  • Answer:

    IBM had a whole staff of engineers. They were building computers from the early 1950s, but when a lot of small companies put little ersonal computers on the market in the late 1970s, IBM designed the first IBM PC in 1982. They commissioned Bill Gates to create an operating system for it which was called PC-DOS, but Gates also sold a modified version of it as MS-DOS. In a few years the two DOS operating systems were completely compatible. DOS was replaced by Windows after Apple marketed their own computer and operating system which had the advantage of "what you see [on the screen] is what you get" on the printout, or WYSIWYG. Windows copied that.
