Big Blue Turns 100

An interesting video about the achievements, both technological and societal, that are attributed to IBM over its 100 year history. Oddly, blue must run in my family's veins, both of my sisters worked for IBM (one still does) and for a brief time in college I pushed electric typewriters for Big Blue.



Several commenters on the video pointed out that there was no mention of IBM's role in providing custom made technology to the Nazi's during WWII that was an integral part of the Holocaust. I hadn't heard about that before but there are a lot of references to the controversy on the web, click here for the details.
