Everything Computers Bingo--Jocellogirl is our WINNER!
Everything Computers Bingo…not *really* everything…there’s so much that could be covered. I’ve picked my brain & come up with the following 30 items. Some of them are far off in the peripherals of computing (such as the historical Abacus) and some more of the Sci-Fi come to real life (Star Trek inspired inventions) I’m hoping to learn some things myself (the research for this was a lot of fun & I tried not to peek too far ahead!)
Same old rules: PM me with your pick of 10 out of the 30. We’ll leave sign up open until October 15th (that’s 2 full weeks). I’ll post the first set of numbers on Oct. 16 by noon EST (& plan on always having the numbers up by noon EST). The first one to PM me with their BINGO call, wins.
I’m sorry, but I cannot award any kind of a computer to the winner, it will be a “Stitchy-prize†but I’m sure the winner will enjoy it!
1 Abacus
2 Apollo Guidance Computer
3 Apple
4 Atlas (computer)
5 Bomba (cryptography)
6 Bugs/Moth-1st Sept 1947 in the Harvard Mark II
7 Calculator watch
8 CER-2 Electronic digital computer
9 Dell & Gateway Computers
10 Dr. Charles Stark Draper
11 E-mail
12 ENIAC
13 Flat screen monitor
14 Floppy Disk
15 Harvard Mark II
16 Internet
17 Maximum PC Magazine
18 Microsoft
19 NewEgg
20 Punch card
21 Ram Memory
22 Rollerball mouse
23 Security programs/Anti-Virus (AVG)
24 Star Trek inspired inventions
25 Sun Microsystems
26 Tape Drive
27 Thumb drive
28 TV card
29 Univac
30 Wireless mouse & keyboard
To All!
