"1970
The Creation of UNIX
Although many would argue that Windows is the most important operating system ever created, UNIX should hold that title. UNIX started as a project between MIT and AT&T Bell Labs. The biggest initial difference (and most important distinction) was that it was the first operating system to allow more than one user to log in at a time. Thus was born the multi-user environment. * Note: 1970 marks the date the name "UNIX" was applied."

"1990
The 90s 'dot-com' Bubble
The dot-com bubble of the 90s did one thing that nothing else had ever done: It showed that a great idea could get legs and become a reality. Companies like Amazon and Google not only survived the dot-com burst but grew to be mega powers that have significant influence over how business is run in the modern world. But the dot-com bubble did more than bring us companies - it showed us the significance of technology and how it can make daily life faster, better, and more powerful."

"1995
The Advent of Windows 95
Without a doubt, Windows 95 reshaped the way the desktop looked and felt. When Windows 95 hit the market the metaphor for the desktop became standardized with the toolbar, start menu, desktop icons, and notification area. All other operating systems would begin to mimic this new de facto standard desktop."
