Many consider this Computer to be one of the most important steps forward in Computer design for businness users due to it's design concept allowing for companies to start with a cheap basic model and then upgrade to larger systems as their needs increased ( Many will quote the IBM/360 as the first true mainframe and it achieved fantastice success helping to make IBM dominent in the Computer industry for many years. IBM ships the first 1401 Data Processing System using Solid-state devices including transistors and the new generation of IBM Hard Discs.Ĭomputer Mouse Prototype invented by Douglas Engelbart and Bill English, It was more than 20 years later that the public first gained any idea of how it could and would be used when it appeared in the Apple Macintosh in 1984 1964īASIC (Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code), an easy to learn high level programming language is introduced. The MicrochipCo-Invented Independently by Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments and Robert Noyce of Fairchild Semiconductor $370 at today's value.įirst production hard disk created by IBM the "IBM 305" storing five megabytes The world's first commercially available computer The Ferranti Mark 1 Released 1954įirst pocket practical transistor radio available to buy the " Regency TR-1" from Texas Instruments goes on sale for $49.95 equiv.

It would also be impossible to include each and every new technology step, so I have included those I personally believe are milestones ( If I have missed any Important steps please please take the time to let me know )ĮNIAC, one of the world's first digital computers, is turned on after a memory upgrade. This Page Lists The First Use or First Sales Of Technological Advances.
In the same way Google would not exist without the Internet and the Internet Would Not Exist without the early work on ARPANET 40 Years Ago. Just a couple of examples We would not have Personal Computers if Microprocessor did not exist and they would not exist if Transistors were not invented, each of those is dependent on earlier steps, I could have taken it back to Electricity or Valves for example but decided to start from Transistors as they are the building block for everything else in our digital age. We could not in all fairness separate out Electrical / Electronics / Digital / Computers / Internet for the History Timeline Below because often each is incumbent on earlier milestones that may not seem instantly apparent.
