    This year in April was the anniversary of IBM Mainframe - celebrating the memorable milestone of 60 years of existence and transformation.

    IBM System/360 Model 65 Mainframe Computer
    vgbuprsv7zw9.png
    The IBM System/360 was a groundbreaking family of mainframe computers announced on April 7, 1964. Designing the System/360 was an extremely risky "bet-the-company" project for IBM, costing over $5 billion. The platform was initially designed to serve the Apollo project, launched in 1961 by American President John Kennedy. The Apollo project carried out its great mission in 1969 when man set foot on the Moon for the first time. The S/360 was the protagonist of this project, from the construction of the aircraft to monitoring its entire trajectory, from launch to the return of the aircraft and astronauts to Earth.

    Although the project ran into severe problems, especially with the software, it was a huge success, one of the top three business accomplishments of all time.

    System/360 set the direction of the computer industry for decades and popularized features such as the byte, 32-bit words, microcode, and standardized interfaces. The S/360 architecture was so successful that it is still supported by IBM's z/Architecture mainframes.

    Just think, the phone in your hand has more processing power by a factor of 10 to 20 times than the computer used to allow man to step foot on the moon. Think about that.

    This is not funny, but is informative as it shows what a teenager thinks a 30 year old looks like.
