    I want to thank you guys so much for the supportive words, it means a lot to me. I know I'm just a tiny channel, but I really do try hard to make decent quality videos that leave you satisfied and hopefully excited about the topic. I absolutely value every minute of viewing attention you guys give me; thank you so much. I'm obviously still learning and making good videos is a trial by fire sort of thing, but hearing encouraging words like this gets me fired up to keep pushing harder.
    I kind of suck at promoting, so feel free to share my content if you think you've got something out of it. I'm really looking forward to growing with such an amazing community of like-minded people.
    And there will be a part 4,5,6... to this series. It's a fascinating topic, that's close to my heart and I'd love to do it justice by being somewhat thorough.

      I love watching CPU flow videos. But I've never seen ones as well structured, coherent, and pleasant to watch. I now know more about x86 than I learned from months of pipelining videos.

      Absolutely agree for all modern education. Its about ticking boxes not competency. And they call it competency based but theres no way to have your competency recognised except to attend the course. Sure theres RPL but guess who does that? Yep the same educational institution that provides the course for lots of money. Guess where their priorities lie

      Interestingly, I have it the other way around. While I understood all of the videos, this is the most clear to me. But to be fair, I spent 6 focused months on operating systems and low level programming when I was in uni 8 years ago. So I basically just have to remember what I was taught back then. :-) It wasn't my favorite subject, but somehow I managed to get an A in the Operating Systems course, by explaining at the exam both how Virtual Memory and Semaphores works (separately).

Used PeachCal, PeachText, and DBMS version 1. I finally bought my first system, that blazingly fast Packard Bell 386sx with math coprocessor, 1MB RAM and a humongous 30 meg hard drive. I was told I'd never be able to fill that hard drive! I spect years upgrading and building my own PCs and Servers. This "Evolution" you've got going is helping me to remember all that forgotten information. It's fantastic! You're filling in holes that I didn't know till now. I'm looking forward to the next set.

    This series is brilliant, it explains everything in such a clear and perfectly sequential manner. I've always understood the simple basics of how a computer functions but this just allows me to understand (and appreciate) the engineering and processes behind computer sciences in simple ways. It makes you appreciate how much work goes into the development of processors and how they've evolved over the years.

    I have been a technology minded person all my life - having worked in industrial manufacturing environments. I have learned much - 3 phase large electrical power management systems down to micro programmable logic controllers (PLC's)....with a host of other technologies in between such as large scale hydraulics (up to 2000 ton molding presses) - pneumatics - refrigerant systems (such as water chillers and associated chemical treatments)....
    I am preparing to teach a young fella who wants to learn robotics. I plan to give an Arduino experimenter electronics kit and needed things like a VOM / soldering iron. I have little experience in the realm of teaching....but I think I will enjoy learning how to.

    This is a good series that is fun and informative. Glad to finally see a mention of a processor architecture other than Intel's x86 line. The Motorola 68000 and its descendants was a fantastic architecture that didn't have many of the restrictions of x86, was usually cheaper, and ran rings around x86 processors clock for clock. There's a reason why so many other computer and console manufacturers chose it for their systems.

    Just another here to say that I subscribed just for the CPU evolution series alone - there's just nothing else quite like this out there, if you want to learn about the basic fundamental evolution of CPU hardware then you've basically gotta set aside a few months to read through the mountains of raw data on this stuff and put it together as you go. But, with a topic that is of practically endless depth, this is really the perfect level of detail given the relevance of each sub- topic featured.
    As far as computer tech is concerned, the evolution of GPUs is a no brainer followup of course - but I think that a sort of co-telling of the histories of Intel & AMD, the precursor company for whom founders of both were originally employed, Fairchild Semiconductor, the founding of both companies within one year of each other, their individual business progressions through the decades(while the CPU was Intel's back bone, AMD originally focused on memory), culminating in the analysis of the x86 war that they've really been in for the last 2 decades; I believe that this would be a HOME RUN series, it's actually quite compelling when you look into it. Especially AMD's original CEO, Jerry Sanders, who really built a uniquely healthy corporate environment during a time in which this was certainly NOT the norm(they were one of the "cool employers" like people see Google - except back in the '60s). Most people just don't realize how close AMD's & Intel's beginnings were, how they took completely different paths initially, before, thanks to IBM requiring Intel to have a secondary independent supplier of their CPUs, they both ended up with a business focus primarily on CPUs, with both of them going on to make their own revolutionary contributions to the industry and lead the bleeding edge.
    Anyway... computer hardware and gearhead tech - great channel, my kind of content!

    If you are reading this and don't feel it is understandable, dont fret! These are complex ideas that take years to fully understand, but keep your head up! And if you are a computer scientist watching this video, good for you! There is a huge issue nowadays where colleges do not teach cosc students hardware and only have them focus on software, but if you only focus on software you will be limited on your ability to program efficiency.

    I have to say the AmigaOS (which was a preemptive multitasking OS) with no MMU support was truly amazing. But today I almost can't believe that it worked so good for an easy 12 hours with loads of programs up and running. I remember OctaMED Soundstudio, Real3D, Deluxe Paint, Pascal IDE, Scenery Animator, Directory OPUS and a lot other tools and gizmos up and running when I programmed (lots of them where also connected with AREXX macros) for 12 hours a day and there where very very seldom crashes. Even with my experimental programming at the same time haha...
    So in School I tried the latest and greatest Windows 3.1 WFG on a 80386 which was in protected mode (MMU support/Pagefile/extra instructions and all)... and it sucked balls really... it crashed frequently, it was cooperative multitasking (but hardly even that).
    But sure AmigaOS was not a multiuser OS. Think though with MMU support it would have been a pretty easy fix actually and yes another filesystem also but my Amiga had about 10-15 different filesystems up and running it was as easy as it is with Linux today.
    And you should have mentioned OS/2 (IBM/Microsofts combined efforts) which in many respects had superior multitasking then NT 3.51/NT 4 and Windows 95/98 and now that I think about it every Windows produced... you should try it if you don't believe me... I was pretty amazed as an Amiga owner actually.

    Damn! No part 4 yet? You got me hooked. Well-presented. These are very difficult topics and concepts to explain clearly (MMU? WTF?!) But you're doing a good job. Only tiny complaint is the pacing is pretty brisk, but heck, that's what the PAUSE button is for, to follow up with additional reading. Can't wait for the episode on paging. Overall -- thumbs up! Now... part 4, please.

    Wow, You picked a tough subject to even try to articulate. I started back in 1980, I can hand assemble machine for the Z-80a, the MOS 6502 and the Intel 8086 and beyond... I've looked at the ARM cpu's.. WOW lots of general purpose registers. I think you've done a great job on your videos. I just wanted to say HI! and your videos are good, the subject matter is large. I think I liked the Auto indexed indirect addressing on the Z80, (LDIR, LDDR) and the dual register stack you could switch between. The 6502 had Zero Page Addressing.. I had so much trouble going from the Z80 to the 6502 but once I got zero page addressing, I was a speed demon. The Intel cpu's reminded me of the Z80 so that was an easy transition. Good I love nostalgia!!! Love your work, take care. Rodnay Zaks and James W. Coffron's books are really, really good.

    These are great vids but that background music is a bit...um...hypnotically mind numbing. Maybe lower it during your speaking. You have a good voice, don’t need the band..lol

      I don't think it needs to be lowered too much, but just a little.
      Same goes for the background graphics. They are cycling so quickly and have a lot of definition. If they were darkened, with lower contrast, and cycled at a slower speed, they wouldn't be as distracting. IMO

    That was great! I had a computer arch and OS courses many years ago, and this was a great refresher of the foundational concepts. Definitely looking forward to parts 4-1000.
    Just a couple of small points for the future videos:
    1). maybe you need a better mic or something - some words are not very clear so sometimes I have to rewind and rewatch a segment (even multiple times in some occasions).
    2). When you proceed to the more complicated parts, you cut down on the number of examples and animations. For example, you had great deal of these when you explained how the CPU registers and memory access work in previous part, however, when it came to protected mode and memory virtualization in this part (which I also happen to forget due to the lack of memory, no pun intended), it was much more abstract...as if you picked up the pace significantly compared to the previous parts, which is somewhat weird as the topic is imho more advanced and is harder to grasp.
    It's not a critique or complaint - it's just a few points I thought you might want to address in your future videos.

    *And there will be a part 4,5,6... to this series. It's a fascinating topic, that's close to my heart and I'd love to do it justice by being somewhat thorough.*
    Just what I was waiting to hear/read.
    Part 1 uploaded: 7 Months ago.
    Part 2 uploaded: 7 months ago.
    Part 3 uploaded: 2 months ago.

    Good history. I owned a Lisa 2-10, too expensive. The first System I worked on was the SDS-940. From 1977 to 1990, I did Microprocessor and Embedded Controller based design. I remember all this.

    Is there a part 4?
    We're up to about the 486, about 1990. I was about to buy one of those, and the rate of change & improvement was about to get staggering...
    And a young man in Finland was about to realise an assignment he'd been given in programming, allowed two different pieces of code to run and managed time slicing between them, and at the very heart of it, that's what and operating system does.
    So he took inspiration from the Minix OS at the college, and decided to write a version of Minix that would run on a 386, because that's what he had. It had to be better than DOS... So after working on this for about 3 days, he posted the work he'd done on a usenet forum and told the world "Hey, I've started a little project. It's probably not going to be anything big or impressive."
    Almost 30 years later, Linus is still in charge of his project, and it remains one of the most stunning success stories of all time.
    Windows is not based on or running on top of Linux. At least not yet, it may well happen. But pretty much everything else in the computing world runs on Linux. It is the core of the operating system in exercise loggers and watches, front door cameras, webcams, internet of things devices, up to all 500 of the top 500 supercomputers in the world. America's Air Traffic control system runs on Linux. So does the Wall Street stock exchange, and pretty much all of the world's' other financial markets. Most of the Internet runs on Linux and was built on Linux. NASA and SpaceX both run on Linux. Amazon runs on Linux. So does PayPal. So does Google and so does RUclips.
    About the only thing Linux does not dominate, is household domestic and office business desktop computers, and that's largely down to the great Satan of Software, and their anti-competitive business practices. But Gates and Ballmer have both gone, and the new management understand necessity, so they're buying their way into Linux through the back door and hoping large donations equal short memories... works in U$ politics....
    Android is an operating system for mobile phones and tablets. It is built on top of Linux.
    One day soon, I predict we will see a windows 11, and like Android, it will be built on top of Linux. The only difference is that's going to be a bit of a dirty secret. Don't go and tell anybody this, because it'll just upset them, but we have a whole new Windows experience for you...
    Google's not going to tell you, because google loves Linux...
    Steve Ballmer may well die of outrage, but everybody else is going to love it.
