"R.K. 1949-97"

1949
George Orwell portrays
A chilling world in which computers
Are used by large bureaucracies to
Monitor and enslave the population, in his book 1984

The year is 1976
Griswald Computer Products introduces the
Griswald Reading Machine
The first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind

1997
Deep Blue beats Gary Kasparov
The world chess champion in a regulation tournament
