| | Alto (voice) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In music, an alto or contralto is a singer with a vocal range somewhere between a tenor and a mezzo-soprano. | | | Altos originally sang from music written in the alto clef, but now use the treble clef. | | | However, choirs singing early music frequently include adult male altos, also called countertenors. |

| | The Apollo/Domain workstation, and Apple Lisa also were heavily influenced by the Alto. | | | The microcode machine had 16 tasks, one of which executed the normal instruction set (which was rather like a Data General Nova), with the others used for the display, memory refresh, disk, network, and other I/O functions. | | | In spite of its small memory size, quite a number of innovative programs were written for the Alto, including the first WYSIWYG document preparation systems Bravo and Gypsy, editors for graphical data (bitmaps, printed circuit boards, integrated circuits, etc.), the first versions of the Smalltalk environment, and one of the first network-based multi-person computer games. |
