I guess u mean who is thr discoverer of computers..well the Father of Computers is Charles Babbage.

Charles Babbage (1791-1871) is sometimes known as the Father of Computing and his Analytical Engine (designed in 1833-34) and Difference Engine (desigined in 1822) are widely believed to be the forerunners of computational machines and computers.\n\nUp until then, the word 'computer' existed but it meant a person who performed computations and calculations.

Never really attributed to a person. Earliest reference is saw was 1992. From Wiki Source:\n"The term Grid Computing originated in the early 1990s as a metaphor for making computer power as easy to access as an electric power Grid."

-07-27: No one person invented the Internet as we know it today. However, certain major figures contributed major breakthroughs: \nLeonard Kleinrock was the first to publish a paper about the idea of packet switching, which is essential to the Internet. He did so in 1961. Packet switching is the idea that packets of data can be "routed" from one place to another based on address information carried in the data, much like the address on a letter. Packet switching replaces the older concept of "circuit switching," in which an actual electrical circuit is established all the way from the source to the destination. Circuit switching is the idea behind traditional telephone exchanges. \n\nJ.C.R. Licklider was the first to describe an Internet-like worldwide network of computers, in 1962. He called it the "Galactic Network." \n\nLarry G. Roberts created the first functioning long-distance computer networks in 1965 and designed the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET), the seed from which the modern Internet grew, in 1966. \n\nBob Kahn and Vint Cerf invented the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) which moves data on the modern Internet, in 1972 and 1973. \n\nBy 1983, TCP was the standard and ARPANET began to resemble the modern Internet in many respects. The ARPANET itself was taken out of commission in 1990. Most restrictions on commercial Internet traffic ended in 1991, with the last limitations removed in 1995. \n\nFor a much more complete history, see the web site of the Internet Society. \n\nNote that the Internet and the World Wide Web are not the same thing. See also: who invented the World Wide Web?, What is the difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet? and See also Hobbes' Internet Timeline for another excellent history of the Internet which includes later important events. \n\nNOTE TO STUDENTS: THE INTERNET WAS NOT INVENTED BY ONE PERSON OR GROUP OF PEOPLE. THERE IS NO ONE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBLE. I get a lot of email about this. If I gave you just one name, my answer would be completely wrong. Writing down one name on a test will probably get you a bad grade. If your teacher says that one person invented the Internet, show them this page. And don't forget, the Internet and the World Wide Web are NOT the same thing. See What is the difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet?

The computer's name was "HAL."\n\nThey chose the letters that come before IBM.

That depends on what you mean by "computer".  The basis of any computing machine is the ability to do input, processing and output.  The core of what makes it a computer is to handle "whatif" questions and to respond differently based on the answer to those questions.  For example, to say, "If the dollar amount is less than X then do this, but if it's greater than X then do that.\n\nBy that definition, the first true computer would probably be Charles Babbage's "Difference Engine" built in the late 1800s.  An improved version, which he called the "Analytical Engine" actually accepted punch card programs, the first of which was written by Lord Byron's daughter, Ada Lovelace, making her the world's first computer programmer.\n\nThe first truly modern electronic computer was, arguably, the ENIAC developed for the US Army by the University of Pennsylvania.  I say "arguably" because it depends on which features you want to include in the definition of "modern electronic computer."  For example, the ENIAC had no stored memory and had to be rewired for each program.\n\nHope this helps.

Charles Babbage's engines were among the first mechanical computers. His engines were not actually completed, largely because of funding problems and personality issues. \nBabbage realized that a machine could do the work better and more reliably than a human being.\n Although Babbage's machines were mechanical monsters their basic architecture was astonishingly similar to a modern computer. \nThe data and program memory were separated, operation was instruction based, control unit could make conditional jumps and the machine had a separate I/O unit.

It was not 'discovered'. Bill Gates went to school, and they had some huge computers there. The students messed with them, and programmed with punchcards. Bill excelled in it, and everyone asked him questions about it. He got hired to make a traffic counting machine with a friend. The friend died, and Bill picked up the project with Paul Allen. They did other things, and eventually created the DOS operating system and sold it to IBM. They later created Microsoft, and bought back the rights for their DOS and started distibuting DOS to everyone. DOS grew over time, and GUIs were formed, and Microsoft became a giant.

The computer wasn't discovered; it was invented.  Check this out:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer#History_of_computing
