Computers In The ‘40s Vs. Today

It can be easy to take for granted how good we have it today. In the ‘40s, this large hunk of a machine was considered to be among the best computers in the world. Called the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer or simply ENIAC, it allowed for calculations to be done in less than a minute that would otherwise need 20 hours for a person to compute.

The thing, though, is that a regular phone today is capable of much more than what the ENIAC did in its time, according to Antique Tech. It really puts into perspective how far we’ve come in terms of science, huh?
