Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit (microchip) used in every computer today back in the 1950's.

I'm only 14, and I even know who he is!
he invented the Integrated Circuit for computers many years ago, and was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2000 for all of the technological advances he had made

yep, that too
I wish I knew QBasic when I was taking Algebra a few months ago
. would have made the math a lot easier, though It would have also been cheating

Hi,
See my web page :
http://www.quickbasic.future.library.ca.tt
I made a interesting program with QB45 and FL35. The program can solve up to 5 linear equations even with complex numbers.
Have a look and let me know about it.
OK, it's in french language for now, but I'm sure you can use the program easily.
Thanks for your visit.
Sorry for my poor english.
