Motherboard Manufacturers Introduction By the time you are finished with this study unit you will have gained quite a bit of knowledge, become very familiar with how a computer works, and understand how the motherboard is the main factor in determining the computers performance and abilities. Please be patient while this study units page loads. (This study unit is a large file and will take a while to download with slower Internet connections.) Some images can be viewed by clicking on them to a larger format for clarity. BACK TO CONTENTS What is a Motherboard? Naming Convention: Motherboard, Mainboard, System Board. The name Motherboard is used in this study unit, however you need to be familiar with the knowledge that the three names above are all the same thing. The motherboard is likened to the mother of the PC (Personal Computer), or caretaker/controller/holder/connection point of everything needed to run a PC.

Extractions: Environmental Scanning at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education: A Progress Report by Edward G. Simpson, Jr., Donna L. McGinty and James L. Morrison Simpson, Edward G. Jr., Donna L. McGinty, and James L. Morrison. (1987, Autumn) Environmental Scanning at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education: A Progress Report. Continuing higher education review Brown and Weiner (1985) define environmental scanning as a kind of radar to scan the world systematically and signal the new, the unexpected, the major and the minor (p. ix). Aguilar (1967) has defined scanning as the systematic collection of external information in order to (1) lessen the randomness of information flowing into the organization and (2) provide early warnings for managers of changing external conditions. More specifically, Coates (1985) has identified the objectives of an environmental scanning system as: detecting scientific, technical, economic, social, and political interactions and other elements important to the organization defining the potential threats, opportunities, or potential changes for the organization implied by those events
The Online Software Museum was working as a consultant to Intel (inventors of the CP/M version 1 that addressedthe specific format of in a separate module he called the bios, for Basic http://museum.sysun.com/museum/cpmhist.html
Extractions: Mission Main Page Exhibit Hall Your Contribution ... Links CP/M A typical CP/M Computer - the Vector-1. If many people today know of CP/M at all, they think of it as "the predecessor to DOS". Here's the real story of the birth, life and death of this once dominant operating system. Birth "Necessity is the mother of invention" the old saying goes. And its true; but as we all know it takes two to make a baby and in the case of CP/M the father was a man named Gary Kildall, who in 1975 was working as a consultant to Intel (inventors of the 8080 chip which at that time powered the majority of non-Apple microcomputers). Kildall's task at Intel that year was to design and develop a language called PL/M for the 8080 chip, to be used as a systems development language. At the time, the chips themselves barely existed and Intel was just then starting to design a computer system that used the 8080. The plan was for Gary to use the 8080 emulator Intel had running on their big PDP-10 minicomputer, but he preferred to work directly on the 8080 itself, in part because by working on his own machine at home he could avoid the 50 mile drive to Intel to work every day. The only 8080-based computer Intel had available was called "Intellec-8", but it didn't have any software or disk storage attached to it. So Kildall obtained a used test floppy drive free from Shugart Associates, attached it to the Intellec-8 with a controller designed by his friend John Torode, and wrote a primitive operating system for it which he called CP/M.
