یکم راجب زندگیش بخونید جالب هست :

Henry Edward "Ed" Roberts (September 13, 1941 – April 1, 2010[1])
was an American engineer, entrepreneur and medical doctor who designed the first commercially successful personal computer in 1975.[2]
He founded Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS) in 1970 to sell electronics kits to model rocketry hobbyists,
but the first successful product was an electronic calculator kit that was featured on the cover of the November 1971 Popular Electronics.[3]
The calculators were very successful and sales topped one million dollars in 1973.[4]
A brutal calculator price war left the company deeply in debt by 1974. Roberts then developed the Altair 8800 personal computer that used the new Intel 8080 microprocessor.
This was featured on the cover of the January 1975 Popular Electronics, and hobbyists flooded MITS with orders for this $397 computer kit.
Bill Gates and Paul Allen joined MITS to develop software and Altair BASIC was Microsoft's first product.
Roberts sold MITS in 1977 and retired to Georgia where he studied medicine and became a small-town doctor.
درمورد تاثیر دستگاهی که ساخت و شرکتش بر روی کار و آینده بیل گیتس از زبان خود بیل گیتس و پال آلن هم جالبه بدونید :
Ed was willing to take a chance on us -- two young guys interested in computers long before they were commonplace -- and we have always been grateful to him...
The day our first untested software worked on his Altair was the start of a lot of great things.
We will always have many fond memories of working with Ed in Albuquerque, in the MITS office right on Route 66
-- where so many exciting things happened that none of us could have imagined back then.
