    Actually I bought an IBM computer that lasted me nine years, so I can't complain.

    I love this trivia section. Please keep doing it if you can find time. I promise never to use GOogle or anything to look up the answers.

    I always thought that HAL from 2001 was a one letter misnomer of IBM

    I recently read that "HAL" is an acronym for "Heuristically programmed algorithmic computer"
