Past Computer Machine

First generation computers used vacuum tube technology, punched cards, and magnetic tape for input, output, and storage. They were large, slow, unreliable, and could only solve one problem at a time. Modern computers have larger memory, can run multiple complex programs simultaneously, are smaller and portable, have powerful graphics, and can download content much faster due to increased processing speed.
