Default Video from 1894!!!!
I wanted to share this with all of you, and I didn't know where else to post this, and it is about TECHNOLOGY. Old Technology, etc.

Did you know that Thomas Edison made videos. They weren't called videos. They were called Kinescopes. I googled this and the machine was called a Kinetoscope.

May I present FROM 1894 (and wait until you see the strongman!!!)

Enjoy

Haha.. it's true:

...The IBM 305 RAMAC was the first commercial computer that used a moving head hard disk drive (magnetic disk storage) for secondary storage. IBM introduced the storage unit on September 4, 1956 before unveiling the entire computer nine days later on September 13......


....The IBM RAMAC 305 system with 350 disk storage leased for $3,200 per month in 1957 dollars, equivalent to a purchase price of about $160,000..........

Let me tell you what else is funny. I had never owned or operated any kind of camcorder in my life. Today, I get a package from my sister in law (my birthday is in a few weeks).

What did she send me?

A Flip Ultra 2

I made my first video EVER on a camcorder and it took me 30 seconds to figure out the whole thing. And when you plug in the little thingee, you go into the software and you upload to youtube in one minute.

Go to the computer forum and see my post.
