Charles Molnar

Charles Molnar was a co-developer of the first personal computer, the LINC (Laboratory Instrument Computer), while a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1962. His collaborator was Wesley A. Clark. The LINC originated decades before the advent of the personal computer. Its development was the result of a National Institutes of Health (NIH) program that placed 20 copies of an early LINC prototype in selected biomedical research laboratories nationwide. Later, the LINC was produced in greater numbers by Digital Equipment Corp. and other computer manufacturers. Molnar received a bachelor's degree (1956) and a master's degree (1957) in electrical engineering from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, N.J. He received a doctoral degree (1966) from MIT in electrical engineering.
