==Test, single-board and development machines== As microprocessors were developed, companies often released simple development systems to bootstrap the use of the processor. These systems were often converted by hobbyists into complete computer systems. Intel's [[Intellec]] computers were a series of early [[microcomputer]]s [[Intel]] produced starting in the 1970s as a development platform for their processors. {|class="wikitable sortable" |+ This is a sortable list; click on the icon at the top of each column to sort by the contents of that column. !
