Thought I would just take a little trip down memory lane.
Now I wasn't even born when this picture was taken but there are plenty of ancient historical images where this was taken from. I did see some of the my earlier computers on this site, along with an old TRS-80, IBM Personal Computer, and the heaviest laptop I ever had: an Hewlett-Packard Integral PC. Boy does that take me back.
There is some great information on this site if you didn't live back in the 40's or just can't remember how we made the jump from abacus to calculators. Or maybe you're interested in how WWII brought about advancements in computers.
I think computer history is something we can all appreciate. After all, have you ever actually seen an ENIAC?
So take a time warp, go look at some very heavy computers at www.computerhistory.org and then go lift your laptop. I am sure glad for technological advancement.
