3. 3 rd Generation Computers  The main points we will make in this presentation is how our computer were in the past. The 3 rd generation of computers was from 1964 to 1971.

4. What was going on in history at this time?  In this time period there were a lot of music like Rolling Stones, and other great bands like the Beatles. People where big fans of music back then.

5. Integrated Circuit  In 1959 a man named Jack Kilby who lived in Texas invented an integrated circuit. This is the start of the 3 rd generation of computers. The integrated circuit knows when you press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse.

7. Semiconductors  A Semiconductor is found in the heart of a microprocessor or chip. Anything that uses radio waves has a semiconductor in it. From http://www.howstuffw orks.com/diode.htm http://www.howstuffw orks.com/diode.htm

8. Apple  The Apple Company makes most computers and IPods. Steven Jobs and Steven Wozniak where the people who made Apple in 1976. In 1977 another one formed. http://www.apple.com/ http://www.apple.com/

9. How did the third generation help us advance?  The third generation of computers helped us advance to this generation by finding out how to improve all of the computer parts to make the computer run faster and able to do more abilities.

10. Top Three most Important  Apple- Without that company we wouldn't have any music to listen to. Salute!  Semiconductors- In side of the microprocessor, or the IPod, helps the microprocessor work correctly. Without this the IPod wouldn’t work.  Operating System- Without these the computer would be worthless. The keyboard, sound, and everything wouldn't work.
