I will assume you mean in main memory. Most early computers did not measure memory in bytes, instead in words, as the byte was not defined until the IBM System 360 (which is NOT an early computer) introduced in 1964. Hard disks did not exist until the IBM 305 RAMAC introduced in 1956 (each 350 hard disk on the 305 contained less than 4 Mbytes), most systems used Magnetic tape (the largest tape used was 2400 feet, less than 5 Mbyte).
Some early computers main memory:
- Zuse Z1 - 64 words, ~150 bytes
- ABC - 60 words, ~300 bytes
- Harvard Mark I - 72 words, ~700 bytes
- ENIAC - 20 words, ~100 bytes
- Zuse Z4 - 64 words, ~250 bytes
- EDVAC - 1000 words, ~5 Kbytes
- EDSAC - 1024 words, ~2 Kbytes
- SEAC - 512 words, ~3 Kbytes
- SWAC - 256 words, ~1 Kbytes
- IAS - 1024 words, ~5 Kbytes
- LEO - 2048 words, ~8 Kbytes
- RAYDAC - 1152 words, ~5 Kbytes
- Whirlwind - 256 words, ~512 bytes
- UNIVAC I - 1000 words, ~12 Kbytes
- UNIVAC 1101 - 16384 words, ~48 Kbytes
- UNIVAC 1103 - 17408 words, ~78 Kbytes
- IBM 701 - 2048 words, ~9 Kbytes
- IBM 702 - 10000 characters, ~10 Kbytes
- IBM 650 - 1000 words, ~5 Kbytes
- IBM 704 - 4096 words, ~18 Kbytes
- IBM 705 Model I - 20000 characters, ~20 Kbytes
- IBM 305 RAMAC - 3200 characters, ~3 Kbytes

22222222 bytes how many MB?
1kb = 2^10 = 1024 bytes 1 mb = 2^10 = 1024 kb = 2^20 bytes = 1048576 bytes. 22222222 bytes = 21.197 mb 21 mb = 22020096 bytes that is 202126 bytes short of the given no. 202126 bytes = 197.388 kb
What were first generations computers like?
first generation computers were not fast and were less reliable.
Is mainframe computer is a multitasking computers?
As with all computers early mainframes did not multitask (early microcomputers did not multitask, early minicomputers did not multitask, early supercomputers did not multitask). Now almost all computers multitask. Multitasking has nothing to do with the size of a computer, it is almost entirely a software feature of the OS running on the computer.
Did the microchip lead to the development of personal computers?
No, microchips made missile guidance computers possible in the early 1960s. The microprocessor (a specific type of microchip containing a complete CPU) made microcomputers possible in the early 1970s and when microprocessors became powerful enough in the early 1980s, the first personal computers.
Information on computers that were developed in the early 1950s and 1960s?

Are computers made up of giga and mega bytes?
Computers are made up of many hardware items. Random Access Memory (RAM) is one of those components. A byte is a unit of measure for memory. Kilobytes (KB) are thousands of bytes. Megabytes (MB) are millions of bytes. Gigabytes (GB) are billions of bytes.
A computers has 512 mb memory how many characters can be stored in its memory at a time?
512 x 1024 bytes
How many bits equals to one byte?
There are 8 bits in a byte. In early computers, there were also 6, 7, and 9 bit bytes, but current usage is 8
How do computers represent data needed to solve problems?
Primarily bytes.
What do you give a dog who loves computers?
giga bytes
Why isn't a kilobyte 1000 bytes?
Computers work on the binary system. Although it's called a kilobyte, it is actually 1024 bytes which is 2^10,
How many is 1gb?

What do rabbits put into their computers?
People put in bytes and bits. Rabbits put in nibbles.
What is 32GB divided 4 bytes?
As the 4 byte or nibble is no longer used in computers then the answer is 32 million Bytes to be divided by 4. The answer is a very big number
