http://www.eingang.org/Lecture

Extractions: Next Welcome to Calypso's Lecture Series for CS-100. The first (and only) lecture in the series is about the history of computing from the past to the present. This offers the student or casual browser an overview of the advances in science that made desktop computers possible starting with the invention of counting. This lecture was originally given in the fall of 1994 at the University of Regina (Regina, Canada) for 400 CS-100 students. CS-100 is an introductory course designed primarily for students from other disciplines. It was not intended for the computing science major student. As such, this material was geared to appeal to those students. Michelle A. Hoyle Future additions to the lecture include a section discussing the impact of business microcomputers and mainframes to the history of computing. Teachers , this lecture is available to be used on a standalone machine in a classroom. Drop me some mail if you would like a copy for use in a classroom, museum, or kiosk. Go back to the previous slide/page in the lecture. Access key: p

Cable television works by sending video signals through fiber and coaxial cable directly to television viewers, rather than by broadcasting over the airwaves. Following the technological convergence that began during the 1990s among television, computer, and telecommunication networks; cable providers began to sell access to a range of services in addition to video programming. Most notable among these services are high-speed Internet access and Internet telephony. The following essay explains how each component of a cable system works to move video content and other cable services between service providers and individual subscribers.

About Acorn Computers And ARM Processors
Includes an introduction, history, hardware and software details, photographs, and screenshots of the RISC OS operating system.
http://home.in.tum.de/~atterer/acorn.html

Extractions: For latest news, try the Acorn Cybervillage , one of the Acorn-related newsgroups (for example comp.sys.acorn.advocacy ), or the websites of Element 14 (formerly known as Acorn) and Advanced RISC Machines (ARM). Many of the JPEGs are only thumbnails - click on a picture to view it full size. All of this must be regarded as my personal view. Other people may have different thoughts about Acorn and their products! If you think that some of the information on this page is wrong, I'd be glad if you told me. Information about Acorn Computers Introduction - some advertising, a little about the company's history Hardware - details about old and new prototypes which were never produced Software - a small market, but good quality Operating system - RISC OS had a task bar before Windoze, look at the screenshots Information about Advanced RISC Machines On a separate page ARM's way - copy of an article which appeared in Electronics Weekly "Acorn? Never heard about it... and why should I bother?" I am perfectly aware that your computer and your OS are far better than what I will be talking about - but if you learn a little about Acorn, you might find that even though the system really can be considered exotic, it is well-planned with consistent design and some clever details which aren't present in any other OS.

http://www.islandnet.com/~kpolsson/comphist/

Extractions: This document is an attempt to bring various published sources together to present a timeline about Personal Computers. This web document is a sneak peek at a book project of mine. Since 1994, I have browsed over 1000 sources for date information related to personal computers. This brief summary includes many of the essential happenings that shaped the industry. The full text contains close to 3000 entries. I have tried to keep it open-minded and unbiased, but the annoying fact is that "the winners write the history books". References are numbered in [brackets], which can be found at the end of this document. A number after the dot gives the page in the source. Last updated: 2003 February 21. 1977-end December 23 Three scientists at Bell Telephone Laboratories, William Shockley, Walter Brattain, and John Bardeen demonstrate their new invention of the point-contact transistor amplifier. The name transistor is short for "transfer resistance". ( Miniaturization of electronic circuits via the transistor is a key development making personal desktop computers small, reliable, and affordable.
