#WorldIntellectualPropertyDay focuses on how creative minds can drive positive change. This is CSIRAC, the 1st computer in Aus. All the hardware it required would fill a room. Now, thanks to innovation, we have much more powerful computers in devices as small as a watch!

Such good memories of seeing CSIRAC at my first @linuxconfau in Melbourne at PDNS. I ended up winning the "First Computer Mouse" book which I read to my kids for years (futurist mice living underground were messing with the CSIRAC paper tape) #lca2020
