Impi yekhompyutha yasekhaya

Ukuqala Kwenguquko Yasekhaya

Ngasekupheleni kwawo-1970 kanye nasekuqaleni kwawo-1980 kwakuyinkathi yokuvubela okungakaze kubonwe kwezobuchwepheshe, ukuphuthuma kwegolide okudijithali okwasuka ezindlini ezingaphansi zezinkampani kanye namalebhu enyuvesi kwangena etafuleni lomndeni. Lena "iMpi Yekhompyutha Yasekhaya," impi enzima yezinhliziyo, izingqondo, kanye nama-pocketbooks abathengi bansuku zonke. Izinkampani ezifana ne-Apple, i-Commodore, i-Atari, ne-Tandy yayingagcini nje ngokuthengisa imishini; babethengisa umbono wekusasa. Ingabe ikhompuyutha yasekhaya ingaba isisetshenziswa esiyinkimbinkimbi sokukhiqiza, ithuluzi elinamandla lokuhlela, noma i-game console nje ekhazinyulisiwe? Le mpi yokubusa ezimakethe kanye nokuphakama kwemibono izobumba isimo sekhompuyutha yomuntu siqu emashumini eminyaka ezayo.

Abaqhudelana enkundleni yempi yedijithali

Impi yaliwa ngamafilosofi ahlukene. Ngakolunye uhlangothi kwakukhona i-Apple, nenhle futhi isebenziseka kalula i-Apple II. Kwakuwumkhiqizo we-premium, owamakethwa njengohlelo oluphelele olulungele imfundo nebhizinisi. Ekhoneni eliphambene kwakukhona u-Commodore, eholwa uJack Tramiel, owayekholelwa "kumakhompyutha oquqaba, hhayi amakilasi." I-Commodore 64, eyethulwe ngo-1982, yaba imbangi edumile ngokunikeza amandla amangalisayo ngentengo engenakunqotshwa, evame ukufiphalisa umugqa phakathi kwekhompyutha nomshini wegeyimu. Ngaleso sikhathi, izinkampani ezifana ne-Atari zithole inzuzo enkulu ngozalo lwazo lwemidlalo, kanti i-IBM, inkakha yekhompuyutha yebhizinisi, yangenela umbango ne-PC yayo, ezogcina ichaze kabusha imakethe ngendlela okungekho noyedwa kwabalwi bokuqala ababeyilindele.

Intengo, Ukusebenza, kanye Nokuhlasela Kwegumbi Lokuphumula

Izinkundla zempi ezibalulekile bekuyintengo nokufinyeleleka. Amanani anolaka ka-Commodore aphoqelela izimbangi ukuthi zingene empini enonya. Amakhompiyutha manje ayeseshibhile ngokwanele ukuba athenge ngokuzumayo afakwe emashalofini ezitolo ezinkulu eduze komabonakude nezinsimbi. Lokhu kuhlasela kwegumbi lokuphumula kwakubucayi. Ngokokuqala ngqa, imindeni yabona ikhompiyutha njengethuluzi elingaqondakali, elibizayo lochwepheshe, kodwa njengethuluzi lasendlini lemidlalo, imfundo, nemisebenzi elula efana nokucubungula amagama. Lolu shintsho lwavumela ukusebenzisa ikhompuyutha ngentando yeningi, lwakha isizukulwane sokuqala sezingane ezizalwa ngedijithali futhi lwabeka isisekelo somhlaba onolwazi ngobuchwepheshe esiphila kuwo namuhla.

Ifa Lempi: Ukusuka Ezinhlelweni Ezizodwa Kuya Ezinkundleni Ezihlanganisiwe

Ngenkathi "impi" ekugcineni yabona amasosha amaningi okuqala ewa, ne-IBM PC architecture nama-clones ayo aba indinganiso ehamba phambili yebhizinisi, kanye ne-Apple idweba indawo ephambili, ifa layo langempela umgomo eyawusungula: ubuchwepheshe kufanele bufinyeleleke futhi bufeze injongo ecacile. Ikhompuyutha yasekhaya yayeka ukuba umkhiqizo we-niche hobbyist futhi yaba ingxenye ebalulekile yempilo yesimanje.

Namuhla, impi ayikho mayelana nokuthi yiliphi ibhokisi eliphathekayo elihlala etafuleni lakho. Okufana nesimanje impi yesistimu yokusebenza emaphakathi eqhuba yonke imisebenzi yebhizinisi lakho. Njengoba nje abasebenzisi bangaphambili bekhompyutha bezabalaza nesofthiwe engasebenzisani kanye nedatha ehlanganisiwe, izinkampani zesimanje zivame ukuhlanganisa ishumi nambili izinhlelo zokusebenza ezinqanyuliwe ze-CRM, ukuphathwa kwephrojekthi, ukuxhumana, kanye nezezimali. Lokhu kuhlukana kudala isiphithiphithi amakhompyutha asekhaya abehloselwe ukusiqeda.

Lapha kulapho umbono wobuchwepheshe obuhlanganisiwe, obulula uqhubeka khona nezinkundla ezifana ne-Mewayz. I-OS yebhizinisi eyimoduli efana ne-Mewayz ixazulula inkinga yesimanje yokwehlukana kwedijithali ngokuletha wonke amathuluzi abalulekile—kusuka ekulandeleleni iphrojekthi nokuphathwa kwamakhasimende kuya kuma-wiki angaphakathi kanye nokwengamela kwezezimali—iwayise endaweni eyodwa ehlangene, engenziwa ngendlela oyifisayo.

• Ukwehliswa Kwamanani Okukhulu: Amakhompyutha athengeka emndenini ojwayelekile.
• Gxila Kulwazi Lomsebenzisi: Ukushintsha ukusuka ku-interface yomugqa womyalo ukuya kumiklamo eyengeziwe enemifanekiso, enembile.
• Isofthiwe Njengomshayeli Oyinhloko: Ukutholakala kwezinhlelo zokusebenza ezibulalayo, ikakhulukazi imidlalo nesofthiwe yokukhiqiza, kunqume impumelelo yenkundla.
• Ukunyuka Kwezinga: Ukubusa kokugcina kwe-IBM PC architecture kugqamise ukubaluleka kwe-ecosystem evulekile, eyimojula.

"Ikhompyutha yabantu abaningi. Sibona ikhompuyutha kuwo wonke amakhaya. Umbuzo awukona ukuthi uma, kodwa nini." Lo muzwa, enanelwa amaphayona anjengoJack Tramiel waseCommodore, wabamba umoya wokuvelela wangaleso sikhathi. Kwakuyinkolelo yokuthi ubuchwepheshe bungakwazi futhi kufanele bubuswe ngentando yeningi.

Eqinisweni, Impi Yekhompyutha Yasekhaya yalwelwa ukuletha amasistimu anamandla, ahlelekile ezimpilweni zethu zomuntu siqu. Namuhla, isimiso esifanayo siyasebenza ebhizinisini. Umgomo awusekho nje ukuba nobuchwepheshe, kodwa ukuba nobuchwepheshe obusebenza ndawonye ngaphandle komthungo. Ngokukhetha inkundla ebumbene njenge-Mewayz, amabhizinisi angaqeda "izimpi" zawo zangaphakathi phakathi kwezinhlelo ezihlukene, enze umthombo owodwa weqiniso oqhuba ukusebenza kahle nokucaca, njengoba nje ikhompuyutha yasekhaya ethandwayo ekugcineni ilethe ukuhleleka egalaji labazithandayo.
