Tech history

In the history of modern technology, there are many key milestones, and the year 2005 seems to be celebrating some 'round number' anniversaries of these milestones. We have already seen the tenth anniversary of the birth of the web (Netscape and its IPO). In addition, Yahoo! and eBay also celebrated their tenth birthdays this year.

The big one of course, was the tenth birthday of Windows 95; and via digg, we learn that the seeds for world domination were sown 10 years earlier: Yes, this year marks the 20th birthday of Windows 1.0.
