I chose Electronics in general. If only average Japanese could ditch Microsoft Windows...

Masatoshi Shima - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One of the founding fathers of today's home computer is a Japanese.

TRON Project - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

More advanced and powerful guideline of making a very robust operating system for business and telecommunication. Obviously made in Japan. This is technically better than Microsoft, BSD or Linux.

Too bad that most of the advanced first world countries feared this meta-project because it will give Japanese business more advantages and various kinds of profit.

SuperH - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One of the most stable and robust microchip for versatile uses made by Hitachi.

It's really hard to chose, so I went with electronics... since everyone uses them.

It's not about liking, it's asking you what has made the most impact globally. And anyone with half a brain would say electronics. The digital camera industry is led by figures such as Sony and Canon.

Federico Faggin was the originator of the 8080 architecture in early 1972, proposed it to Intel's management and pushed for its implementation. He finally got the permission to develop it six months later. Faggin hired Masatoshi Shima from Japan who did the detailed design under his direction. Stan Mazor contributed a couple of instructions to the instruction.
Sort of left out the important stuff again.
Microsoft and BSD ,Linux are not business os's? Have you heard of Unix? How about Sun Micro Systems or Oracle?

Oh I know. However, a lot of people here don't know about this. So I tried to write it in an extremely simple way.

No hard feelings for you.
