The Beginning
Perhaps the most significant date in the history of computers is the year 1936. It was in
this year that the first "computer" was developed. It was created by Konrad Zuse and dubbed
the Z1 Computer. This computer stands as the first as it was the first system to be fully
programmable. There were devices prior to this, but none had the computing power that sets it
apart from other electronics.
