Running History of IT stuff

Always regretted not recording IT changes as they happened. Eg. When I started computing (around 1980) I sold the original IBM PC (twin Floppy at $8,000, with a 10MB HDD around $16,000) So have started a history page in my wiki.

Will troll over my old notes to see what I can add!
