computers had keyboard and monitor as input-output devices. (You will learn about input and output devices in the next chapter).Over the last decade, the computers became so small that it could fit in a hand. This was possible because of many integrated circuits on one
 +
small square called a microprocessor or a chip which became the main part of the computer. Mouse, an input device was developed. These small and powerful computers were connected together to share information between computers and this period saw the birth and
 +
growth of Internet (you will study in detail about Internet in one of the chapters).

Now-a-days,we see smart phones and tablets (which are small touch screen computers).
