| | History of computing hardware (1960s-present) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The minicomputer was a significant innovation in the 1960s and 1970s. | | | A study of computer history is not complete without a discussion of the early home computers, in particular the MITS Altair. | | | The history of computing hardware (continued from history of computing hardware) picks up with the development of the integrated circuit. |

| | The first computers that can be called 'personal' were the first non-mainframe computers, the LINC and the PDP-8. | | | The term personal computer or PC is generally a microcomputer intended to be used by one person at a time, and suitable for general purpose tasks such as word processing, programming, or game play, usually used to run purchased or other software not written by the user. | | | The motherboard is the primary circuit board for a computer. |

| | This state of affairs continued until the 1960s when IBM developed the System/360 series of machines; although there were enormous performance differences across the range, all the machines ran essentially the same operating system, OS/360. | | | The history of computer operating systems recapitulates to a degree, the recent history of computing. | | | The development of microprocessors made inexpensive computing available for the small business and hobbyist, which in turn led to the widespread use of interchangeable hardware components using a common interconnection (such as the S-100, SS-50, Apple II, ISA, and PCI buses), and an increasing need for 'standard' operating systems to control them. |

| | Server (Linux Reviews) |
| | Software ultimately requires computer hardware to run, and originally server software would be run on a large powerful computer such as a mainframe computer or minicomputer. | | | These have largely been replaced by computers built using a more robust version of the microprocessor technology than is used in personal computers, and the term "server" was adopted to describe microprocessor-based machines designed for this purpose. | | | One might expect that the "server" in X would refer to the computer on which individual programs are running and the client to be the computer the human user is physically in front of. |

| | This was to be the locus for computer science instruction and research until the establishment of a separate Computer Science Department in 1979. | | | In fact, machine computing had been going on here for decades prior, but the 650 was the first computer in the modern sense of the word at Columbia open to the academic departments for research and instruction. | | | This is one of the first large-scale electronic computers, and the first machine to combine electronic computation with a stored program and capable of operating on its own instructions as data. |

| | The title "Laugh-In" was a play on a popular 1960s concept called a "love-in," where people would get together to protest war by singing songs and holding hands. | | | Shortly after the beginning of the show was a scene called The Party, with all cast members dancing in a swinging 1960s party atmosphere, in between delivering one and two line jokes. | | | Hosted by the comedy team of Dan Rowan and Dick Martin (Rowan typically played the straight man), the show was characterized by a rapid-fire series of gags and sketches, many of which had a sexual innuendo. |

| | Music of the 1960s |
| | What the music on this program tells us about the 1960s, which rock music, television shows, political events, and the familiar icons do not, is the enormous and ironic debt the 1960s had to the very past it was trying to wipe out, to the power of historical continuities as opposed to ephemeral surface changes. | | | The 1960s, after all, were close in time (indeed, closer than we are to the 1960s) to the 1948 Zhdanov decrees (Stalin’s condemnation of modernism) and the cultural politics of Nazi Germany. | | | Future generations may, when they write about the 1960s, begin to recognize the traditions audible in today’s concert as characteristic of a decade whose revolution was founded on the knowledge that the inventive imagination can offer a critical response to the past that does not descend into nostalgia. |

| | Although the term black power emerged in the late 1960s, the philosophy of the movement had previously been espoused by black nationalist groups such as the Nation of Islam, or Black Muslims. | | | A growing militancy in the African American community was signaled by the outbreak of violence in urban black neighborhoods during the mid-1960s, including race riots in Los Angeles, Calif., Newark, N.J., and Detroit, Mich. Black activists attempted to harness the widespread frustration by establishing black nationalist organizations. | | | By the late 1960s militant groups had gained widespread support among black activists. |

| | Black Insurgency |
| | In this paper, we are not directly concerned with the dynamics of partisanship and policy preferences since the 1960s, but rather with establishing that non-elite, movement-based opinion cues are a central determinant in issue positions on racial equality, and that they are central well before the mid-1960s. | | | As we noted in earlier sections, the broader substantive debate here concerns recent works on the centrality of the mid-1960s in the formation of racial preferences and the influence of those racial preferences on political partisanship and policy preferences broadly since the mid-1960s. | | | Significantly, the results here suggests that linkages between racial issue positions and partisanship were visible well before the putatively critical mid-1960s. |
