Homebrew
Computer Club Newsletter,
1975
Amateur Computer
Users Group
A
group of electronic
hobbyists with
a common interest
in the then radical
idea of building
their own computers.
Because of the
size and cost of
the early computers,
early hackers were
restricted to using
a small number
of machines built
by large companies
and installed at
universities or
industrial research
centers. This group
included legendary
figures such as
Lee Felsenstein,
Steve Dompier,
Steve Wozniak,
Steve Jobs, and
Bill Gates, that
formed the foundation
for the entire
personal computer
industry of today. |
