This roundtable is part of the Stanford EE380 Computer Systems Colloquium. The first single chip microcomputer is generally acknowledged to be the Intel 4004. Stan Mazor who, along with Frederico Faggin and Ted Hoff, was one of the architects of the processor, will provide some context and background. Hap Walker, Tom Pitman, Ed Lee, and Dennis Allison will share war stories from the days when a word was 4-bits and and memory was not free. The Colloquium talk will be livestreamed today, Wednesday, January 19, at 4 PM.
