    Intel revolutionized the word of technology with the introduction of the 4004 microprocessor in November 1971. Accompanied with the heading, "Announcing a new era of integrated electronics," the 4004 was launched as the first general purpose microprocessor available for commercial use.

    Actually, the first commercial microprocessor was the AL1 developed by Four Phase Systems. See the Description of this chip on the Computer History Museum timeline:
