Hi guys.

what party/who do you think gave the most to the computer/internet/IT technologies
you can state in hardware and/or in software or just in general

IBM,Microsoft,Open Source People(if u can specify would be great) and oh please don't turn it into another fight between M$ ppl and Open source ppl,SunMicrosystem,oracle,intel,IEEE,Google inc,www.some-community-site.com,X-labs,the US government ...

donno there are lot of names, I just tried to remember the companies that were in the old days, but seems like can't get the names out of my head

and why did u choose that company or party between everybody from the all time
well u don't have only to pick up one(damn hard :P )... u can state some and tell what invention or the important stuff they did to make the topic more informative
