Computer History
August 27 1993 - Compaq Introduces Presario
August 28 1991 - First E-mail From Space Is Sent Today

Aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis (mission STS-43), an AppleLink, running on a Macintosh Portable is used to send the first email from space. Astronauts Shannon Lucid and James C. Adamson send the message, “Hello Earth! Greetings from the STS-43 Crew. This is the first AppleLink from space. Having a GREAT time, wish you were here,…send cryo and RCS! Hasta la vista, baby,…we’ll be back!” to Marcia Ivins, a shuttle communicator at the Johnson Space Center. AppleLink was interfaced to NASA’s communication system to allow the Shuttle to call up GEIS’ network from space. The Shuttle’s e-mail address is a secret, but exposed to GEIS’ email network as any other AppleLink address would be. To avoid a deluge of incoming mail generated by the media publicity surrounding the event, Apple set up a number of obvious “honeypot” addresses, such as STS43@AppleLink, to draw unwanted mail. - (From The Great Geek Manual)

August 30 1907 - Computer pioneers John Mauchly and Gordon Brown are born
