Hi, You may be interested that the Computer Society History Committee <http://www.computer.org/portal/web/volunteercenter/history>http://www.computer.org/portal/web/volunteercenter/history has updated the Society's computing history timeline <http://www.computer.org/cms/Computer.org/Publications/timeline.pdf>http://www.computer.org/cms/Computer.org/Publications/timeline.pdf Please note that our committee does not claim that this is in any sense a list of "most important" events during any of the time intervals from 1997-2010 that the committee covered in its update. Rather, these are meant to be representative events including international and technology diversity. Best regards, Dave
