By the turn of the 1970’s technological advancement was exceeding expectations in all areas, and the computer revolution was well and truly underway when we reached 1975, the year in which a certain Bill Gates and business partner Paul Allen created a company that is nowadays a daily name of the highest order – Microsoft.
The video recorder also began to take hold in many countries, although the legendary battle between VHS and the doomed Betamax had not been resolved – and a small number of home computers came onto the market for the first time.
It was in 1975 that the Conservative party made the radical choice of a woman, Margaret Thatcher, as its leader, and the Iron Lady – as she became known – would go on to achieve success and notoriety in equal measures.
