Already in 1962
is not good English. Generally, you shouldn't start a sentence with a preposition, but "By 1962 he..." or "In 1962 he..." are much better. The article claims that in 1962 computers filled entire buildings. This is grossly misleading although a "building" is too vague to be informative (it may be 500 cubic ft or 400,000 cu meters), a building would intuitively be assumed to consist of multiple rooms each with ~1000 cu ft of volume. An IBM 709 (vacuum tubes) could comfortably fit into a large single room, you could fit many onto a single floor of a typical office building. The offending hyperbole should be removed.72.16.99.93 (talk) 20:52, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
