The year 1982 was a notable year, because it was at the brink of discovering a newer,smaller,and more efficient machine as we know it today as the the personal computer.During this time the country had numerous events taking place such as the worse unemployment rate since the Great Depression.It was a year when the first artificicial heart started to pump blood into a dying mans chest and prince william arthur phillip louis was born.During that year many scientist had predicted the future for computers based on how the sales trippled year to year.They anticiapated computers taking the place of humans and jobs being lost because of the advancement of computers.In 1982 there was no man of the year simply the computer was the machine of the of the year.Computers where no longer used just for military use or educational use people where basing their jobs and careers around computers and the ever changing technology of them. Computers changed the world forever.
After 28 years the predictions that computer experts made were very correct many jobs have replaced workers for computers and the world is mainly operated by computers. Computer are leading in the the technology field with improvements every day.

Mr. Ejiro, I like how imformative your paper is. You informed me not only about 1982's Time's Person of the year, but you have also used other examples to inform your readers what the presenet setting was during that time. However it was a little to short, and there could have been a little more information about the personal computer, and what it was intended to be used for. Watch some of your choice of words and sentence structure. But over all this was a good statement on Time's 1982 Person of The Year!
