Very nice.  An Excellent start on the timeline. 
I note the absence of ENIAC in 1946 - always deserves mention as the first all-electronic computer. 
Also add the Boston Computer Exchange in 1983 - the first e-commerce business (will be 25 years on March 4, 2008)

  It is not perfect, but I've tried to make one myself. You can find it here:
  http://dev.ulb.ac.be/~jdepauw/Timeline/

  It is not official, so do not use it as a trusted source, but you'll find
  there some clue and idea to handle with your task.

  I hope it helps,

  Jeremy
