Personal computer

A personal computer is any general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities, and original sales price make it useful for individuals, and which is intended to be operated directly by an end user with no intervening computer operator. This is in contrast to the batch processing or time-sharing models which allowed large expensive mainframe systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time, or large data processing systems which required a full-time staff to operate efficiently.

    The Amiga 500, also known as the A500, was the first "low-end" Commodore Amiga 16/32-bit multimedia home/personal computer. It was announced at the winter Consumer Electronics Show in January 1987, at the same time as the high-end Amiga 2000, and competed directly against the Atari 520ST. The A500 was released in mid 1987 at the price of US $595.95 without monitor. The original A500 proved to be Commodore's best-selling Amiga model, enjoying particular success in Europe.

    Franco Battiato- Personal Computer

    Mi son comprato un personal computer ma il cuore soffre un poco di aritmia. Non so come curare i reumatismi. Nelle famiglie personalità sempre in conflitto. A volte anche una finta gentilezza è per litigare. Quando è notte nelle stanze d' albergo rumori di letto sesso meccanico questa ginnastica chiamata amore. Innumerevoli stati d' assedio propongono ricette per la vita ma ho già l' astrologia babilonese. Nel Medio Evo rinascimentale c'è chi cerca una liberazione e c'è chi scopre un'altra particella. Quando è notte nelle stanze d'albergo rumori di letto sesso meccanico e il tuo telefono è sempre occupato. By Mions'91
