Way back in 1968, not that long ago, my oldest relative was put together by a man named Alan

Kay. Now, unlike what I am, my great great grandpa, Dynabook had bitmapped graphics which means; a bitmap is a type of graphic composed of pixels (picture element) in a grid. Each pixel or "bit" contains color information for the image. Bitmap graphics formats have a fixed resolution which means that resizing a bitmap graphic can result in distortion and jagged edges. 1982 my great grandpa, 80286 processor was built by an anonymous person. The Intel 80286[1] ("eighty-two-eightysix"; also called the iAPX 286, "two-eighty-six"), introduced on 1 February 1982, was a 16-bit x86 microprocessor with 134,000 transistors. Like its contemporary simpler cousin, the 80186, it could correctly execute most software written for the earlier Intel 8086 and 8088.[2] It was employed for the IBM PC/AT, introduced in 1984, and then widely used in most PC/AT compatible computers until the early 1990s. The 80286 was the first x86 microprocessor with memory management and wide protection abilities.
