And they are more ubiquitous than might be thought - you may have more than30 computers in your home: not just the desktop and laptop but think of the television, the fridge, the microwave. But what is the basic nature of the modern computer? How does it work? How has it beenpossible to squeeze so much power into increasingly small machines? And what will the next generations of computers look like?
