Abstract

Software developments in the personal computer area during 1984 are examined, as are innovations in computer architectures and display hardware and the introduction of 16- and 32-bit microprocessor-based personal computers. The application software introduced last year for personal computers was more complex than earlier software, moving closer to achieving the power of minicomputer software. Multitasking on personal computers and the use of advanced microprocessors are also considered. Advances in graphics capabilities are noted, and the introduction of portable computers is discussed.
