They started out making typewriters, then guns for WWII, and eventually made #supercomputers. Here is a neat model used in the railroad industry. Their first computer, the UNIVAC, cost $1,500,000, had 5,200 vacuum tubes, and could perform a whopping 1,905 operations per second. So yeah, your smartwatch blows this thing out of the water! The UNIVAC weighed 29,000 pounds, and the CPU alone was 14 feet x 8 feet x 8 feet big. #tbt #throwbackthursday
