It is amazing how fast the computer world changes in size and capability... The CPU for UNIVAC I filled up a whole room in the 1950's. Now a CPU of comparable power can fit on the tip of your finger. Good shot! I've enjoyed it.

Hello Inaam

Unimaginable computing power, but to what end? Thanks for sharing this.

Greg

Hello Inaam,
Interesting montage telling a typical story of our time! What is impressive today is often outdated tomorrow...
And with an operating cost like that it better be effective too!

Hello Inaam
you are so correct in your notes.. Our children just may walk around with all that technology... We know how quick our "super computers" IMB went from a ROOM of technology to a tiny laptop or even phone!

I really like the way you put together your photos

Excellent montage Inaam, good colour and every image nice and clear. Good technical notes to accompany this image. Bakc in the late 60's I began operating mainframe computers, some of them were huge in size but my current desktop surpasses their memory. TFS,

Mmm... does it process photoshop as well, Inaam? LOL.
Nice machine. I'm not even considering its power consumption ;o). A nice montage, the small inserts are nice & sharp and well placed.

Hello Inaan


OH!!!.... that is that it is a great servant!
He would never have seen that if it didn't post.
In fact, I agree with you, it is a Great Computer!
And reading his configurations, it is potent supeeer.
I still didn't get used to with the language Linux, but I need to create shame in the face and to do a course.
Congratulations, beautiful presentation of an excellent note!
