Mess
I'm sorry but this page just appears to be a mess, I can't read half the entries on the diagram at all. AlanD 23:41, 4 February 2007 (UTC) yes timeline is complete mess Rohit
 * This timeline has the potential to be a beautiful piece of work. The collisions need to be worked out.  Alatari 05:38, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The Graphical Timeline is done with an image file. The 'collisions' are part of the image (?!). There is nothing to be done in the article, except to replace the image with a clearer one. Pavium 13:39, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Needs to be updated, the CPUs part doesn't even list Phenom / Core 2 / Nehalem, and Snow Leopard / Win7 are missing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.65.4.14 (talk) 16:04, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

Somebody should use Windows Viseo to remake this timeline —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.110.182.98 (talk) 12:48, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

I think there is a world market for maybe five computers

Computer on an airplane
Produced by AVRO CANADA, the first flight of the fantastic CF-105 Arrow interceptor occured on March 25, 1958 and it was the first airplane to fly with an electronic computer. Now, the question: what was the computer in the Arrow cockpit ? It would be nice to recall that in the timeline.

We all know that Apollo was also carrying an inboard computer which allowed the astronauts to perform some level of computations. Again, the same question applies.

It would take some time before we could see computers in airplanes, we had to wait until de Airbus fly-by-wire for commercial ones. Again, the same question applies.

Needs to be Updated
Windows 8 needs to be added. Bob herry    talk  13:27, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

and android too or not? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.118.247.210 (talk) 23:39, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Dead link
The link to "A brief history of Computing" gives a Page not Found.

A quick web search gave me http://trillian.randomstuff.org.uk/~stephen/history/ which I guess is the resource originally linked to, but since I've never seen the original page, I'm not certain enough to just change the link; also it might be a mirror or copy of the original source instead of the moved source itself (assuming the original still exists in the first place).

Someone more knowledgeable about it than me should update the dead link. --93.134.58.244 (talk) 08:17, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Commodore PET bad date.
The Commodore PET was released and available 2 years earlier than shown on this chart. It should be moved to 1977 and was released slightly ahead of the Apple II and Radio Shack TRS-80 models. They were called the 1977 Trinity by Byte magazine. Just follow the link to the PET page for validation. DaleDe (talk) 21:13, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
