My Chronicle Technology(1)


The first time I met a computer was almost 20 years ago. I was 11 years old. It was MS-DOS(Disk Operating System). 
I know English MS-DOS came out in 1981 first time, but, in Korea, people brought Korean DOS in 1985.  
I had to type every single code. To calculate "2+2=4", I had to make certain code like "A=2","B=2","A+B=C" and "C=?" and then typed it. It took long time. It was so annoying and inconvenient. Doing a sum in my head was much faster than using computer. 

So, I couldn't understand why I had to know the computer. I just stopped learning the computer. Many people said that the computer was a incredible invention in the world.
Also, many teachers told to student " You guys have to learn the computer!"; however, even they didn't know the reason why people had to learn the computer. 
I thought "why? to play a game? It is a so stupid machine bothering me." 
It was just 20 years ago..... We were just ordinary people, me and around me, and we  had NO IDEA WHAT THE COMPUTER WAS.


Five years later when I met MS-Windows, I realized I was stupid, not that computer.
