From room to a palm of hand

• If we look at the history of computer, we’ll see that how bigger and slower were the computers at the start (first and second generation)

• But now we can access the internet from just one finger tip and we can hold the computer in our hand

• We can access it, anywhere, while standing sitting or running

• The desktop computers cannot move, as they need current through plug all the time

• Even Laptops requires your lap or specific place

• But mobiles are now can be used easily• Many people use it for many purposes• It provides access to internet, which means

access to the whole world.• Some people use it for entertainment, some for

business purposes.• And with the flux in time, mobile phones are

replacing Desktop computers.
