Off Topic · I love these old computer films (page 1)

You guys ever get a chance to see stuff like this in high school? The first one is about the 'Computer History Museum' located in California. Anyone ever been there? I never even heard of it until now.

The third film is about how main frame computers helped the air force, back in the 40's and 50's. I found that one to be fascinating! Every time I see one of those old air force movies now, I'll know what's behind the defense part of it.

Enjoy!

I guess what's interesting about these films is it shows us how far we've come technologically, but also, how much we lost in knowing how it all started and came to be. Most people don't even know the 'behind the scenes' to the computer world.

Someone made a point about how safe those old main frames still are today, next to our own present PC's. They've never been hacked!

We've become too sophisticated and out of touch in many ways. Here I am, just about two years later and all I know of you guys is the fact that you are mere font activated intelligence. And vice versa.

I think there is a lesson to be learned here.
