<b>Description:</b><br>
The roots of modern digital computing go back nearly two hundred
years, and through a series of pass-around artifacts from the past
century, we will explore how the pioneers of the field and their
groundbreaking decisions and technologies have led us -- for better
or worse -- to today's Internet-enabled world.
