Stephen Morse is the architect of the Intel 8086 chip. He has degrees in Electrical Engineering from CCNY, the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn and New York University. He has worked for Bell Laboratories, IBM Watson Research Center and GE Corporate Research and Development. In recent years, he has applied his technology expertise to Web-based Genealogy Search Tools. His "One Step" Search Pages are widely used by Genealogists all over the world. He is quoted as saying that "While I'd like to think that the PC wouldn't exist today if I hadn't designed the 8086, the reality is that it would be based on some other processor family. The instruction set would be radically different, but there would still be a PC. I was just fortunate enough to be at the right place at the right time."
