In 1950 there was less than a megabyte of RAM on the entire planet. A goodly chunk of it resided in the basement of an old laundry building...in the hands of a bunch of young engineers who had a plan. There were many who didn't want that plan to succeed and tried mightily to stop it!

Here's a real opportunity to learn how Information Technology came about, how all the pieces work together, and who was responsible for what. From 1938 to 1958 history was in the making--and much of our modern world was a direct result. The bright boys played an integral part, and their efforts directly affected generations thereafter. Their huge machine shook the world and provoked a revolution in electronics. Read how their giant creation became ever smaller and then disappeared all around us into our new age of modern computers and high-tech wizardry.
