43 years ago around this time the Internet we use to communicate with was probably made possible because of TCP/IP, or Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol created at Stanford University. Today 3 billion people are on the net but really made it possible for this extravagant number was the microcomputer created at around the same time – the Micral in France and 4004 processor machines in the U.S. Our hobby supported through this web site keeps this history alive. Hurrah!
Happy computing. Murray :) PS This week marks the 100th anniversary of Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity though published in 1916 according to Wikipedia.
