computer revolution

    0.06 sec.

Refers to the tremendous impact computers have had on society. One might say that the real "revolution" started in the late 1970s with the advent of personal computers, because consumers would become customers, not just businesses. Advances in semiconductors and electronics led to improvements in portable and handheld devices as well as the telecommunications industry. All of these technologies allowed the Internet to flourish, which has truly been a revolution in communications. The computer is at the heart of all of it.
