From Between The Lines, ZDNet blog, Larry Dignan brings this top 10 list which I found interesting (regardless you agree on all or not): The 10 biggest moments in IT history.

  1. The development of COBOL (1959)
  2. The development of the ARPANET (1969)
  3. The creation of UNIX (1970)
  4. The first “clamshell” laptop (1979)
  5. The beginning of Linus Torvalds’ work on Linux (1991)
