“In 1946, when the ENIAC computer was dedicated, it weighed over thirty tons.[1] “ENIAC” is the acronym for the Electronic Numeral Integrator and Computer.[2] In the early 1950s, the RAND Corporation built JOHNNIAC, a 2.5- ton computer.[3]
In 1966, a team of engineering students re created ENIAC on a single chip.[4] Today, a smartphone has more computing power than NASA had when the first men landed on the moon in 1969. Id.” M. Berman, et al., eds., “Managing E-Discovery and ESI” (ABA 2011), 6 (citation omitted).
