You can only start working after buying the above things, come on, word, execl, powerpoint, buy cheaper together, a set of officeXP is about 500 dollars.

What, won't it work? It's simple, buy a book to nibble on, and get another $20.

If you want to become a programmer, then these are not enough, at least you have to buy a Visual, otherwise how to compile the program?

You can't do it behind closed doors, at least you have to be in line with the world, and it costs $2,799 to register for an MSDN or something.

To get back to the point, I have long agreed with Professor Su's teaching methods, so I see that Professor Su is more and more pleasing to the eye. Professor Su talked about programming and even encouraged everyone to write small games to exercise their thinking.

This surprised Chang Chang even more, and he asked Professor Su again and again what he asked. The answer is simple: fun and exercised.

Professor Su said, "You should be interested in learning everything, and games can stimulate people's interest the most. And making a computer game is not so simple, but it is much more difficult than writing those MIS software. Whether it's the workload, the technical complexity, or the challenge of technological innovation, it's too high. ”

I grabbed Professor Su's hand for a long time, tears flowed, and the admiration in my heart was unintentionally expressed, what a bosom friend. I have never received this kind of recognition in my dream for a long time, and the development of the game in China is like a flood of beasts, and I am afraid to kill it.

Professor Su smiled: "Computer game technology is a collection of various computer technologies, whether it is artificial intelligence, simulation, computer graphics, virtual reality, human-computer interaction, software engineering, etc., can be found in games, so it is also beneficial to let them try this." ”

Cao Changjiu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Professor, what project are you focusing on at Stanford?"

"My research focuses on computer graphics and CAD technology. ”

"!!!" Cao Changjiu is ecstatic, isn't the problem that he and Feibiao have been trapped for many days is the graphics system?

Immediately, Professor Su was invited to Fei Biao's home as a guest and visit his studio together, but Fei Biao was not there.

Professor Su was very surprised to see their results for a long time, and he didn't expect to see such a thing in this backward region of the East.

"You guys did it yourself?" Professor Su put on his glasses and looked at the circuit board carefully.

"Not bad. For the most part, we are ready to add a graphics chip in pursuit of higher graphics processing speeds. Chang Chang explained.

"As a game console, this system should work. Professor Su took off his glasses and looked at the effect of the output screen, "If you add a graphics chip, the cost may rise a lot." ”

"I'll just say, this guy doesn't listen. Long complained that "an arcade board made him look like a workstation." ”

"What workstation?" Professor Su asked curiously.

"Forehead ......" said for a long time, and the workstation seemed to have come out in 80 years, "It's a small computer, yes, cheaper than a small computer but the performance is comparable." ”

Professor Su put back on his glasses and looked at it, "How can the performance of this thing be comparable to that of a minicomputer? The CPU is still 8-bit." ”

"Not this one. He smiled awkwardly for a long time, "This is the original model, and we later made a set of improved models that we played, regardless of the cost, hehe." ”

Chang Chang took Professor Su to a room and showed the results of their work these days.

It was a little thing that was almost entirely designed to fit into a computer, and it could be placed on a desktop, with the best 32-bit microprocessor 68000 available on the inside of the CPU, and the memory increased to 4 megabytes, plus various external devices such as disk drives.

A strange bus of its own design for a long time, which allows the CPU to communicate point-to-point. As for the graphics system, it is currently being tackled.

Professor Su opened his eyes and carefully observed this strange thing, and sighed for a long time.

"Is there any problem?" Chang Chang was very nervous, for fear that Professor Su would say something "this is rubbish".

"There's nothing wrong with things, it's a good computer!" Professor Su smiled, "Your technology is very good, presumably its performance is very good, and it does have the strength to fight against small computers." ”

He smiled for a long time: "The fat label guy wants the best, I can only design it like this, anyway, he has money." ”

"But ......," Professor Su paused, "as an arcade machine, I'm afraid it's too expensive." ”

"I think so too, it looks like I'll have to play by myself, hehe. Chang smiled and said, "I'd better give up this thing and let the fat label toss it by himself." ”

"Don't worry, I'm not done yet. Professor Su said, "It's not good as a game console, but it's a computer that can compete with a small computer, how much does it cost?"

"Less than $10,000. "I kept an eye for a long time, and I specially reported a little higher.

"That's right, if you think about it, it's designed and manufactured with common components, and the performance is about the same as that of a small machine, but the price is greatly reduced, which is a business opportunity. Professor Su said slowly.

"You mean, make it into a finished product and sell it?"

"Listen to me, we do have a very fast central computer at Stanford University, but there are many people who use it, and many people are not willing to fight with others. So I wanted to make my own system for a long time, and I didn't have the time. Professor Su said quickly, "I didn't expect to see it in you, almost the same as I requested, extremely fast, open architecture, common components, cheap price, it is simply designed for universities." ”

"How much do American minicomputers sell?" asked rhetorically.

"The minimum is more than 100,000, and you can imagine how many articles can be done here. Professor Su winked at him.

"Then what should I do now?" He was a little stupid for a long time, and he was a little dizzy from the sudden gold bricks.

"Hehe, take your time. Professor Su patted him on the head and smiled, "This system has already taken shape, so there is no need to add anything." Apply for a patent first, and then hire a few salesmen to go from university to university, and sell it! Say okay, I want this one!"

"What about the graphics system?" said Chang Jian anxiously.

"It takes quite a while for a graphics system to be consolidated on a single motherboard. Professor Su thought for a moment, "But you're ...... The workstation is an open system that can be made into a plug-in card type, which is no problem. If you need it, I can design it for you, but you have to pay for it. ”

"That's no problem, this is our phone number here, you can contact us if you have anything. "Long rejoice.

"Okay, I'll go back first. I'll be back next week and I'd like to see a finished machine. ”
