[Air-l] History of computer

[Karim R. Lakhani]

Antonio,

Check out the following:

1) The Triumph of the Nerds http://www.pbs.org/nerds/
2) Nerds 2.01 http://www.pbs.org/opb/nerds2.0.1/

Both are video programs that outline the silicon valley perspective

Also see:

Peter Salus's A Quarter Century of Unix (1994)
Janet Abbate's Inventing the Internet

I guess you should go back as far as Babbage to start documenting
efforts to build computers.

hth,

Karim
