Five interesting facts you could learn by visiting websites in the MWCC Computers & Technology Directory:

• The first devices that started to resemble what we know as a computer date appeared in the mid-20th century (1940–1945), although the concept of a computer, as well as various machines similar to computers existed prior to this time.
• In almost all modern computers, each memory cell is set up to store binary numbers in groups of eight bits (called a byte). Each byte is able to represent 256 different numbers; either from 0 to 255 or -128 to +127.
• A typical modern computer is able to execute billions of instructions per second and will rarely make a mistake over many years of operation.
• The term artificial reality, thought to be coined by Myron Krueger, has been used since the 1970s, but the origin use of the term "virtual reality" can be traced back to the French actor, playwright, and director Antonin Artaud.
• A 1946 comic science-fiction story, by Murray Leinster, laid out the Internet and showed some of its strengths and weaknesses. It took more than a decade before his vision started to become a reality.
