[Uri’el-2012]

I think the real jump start was the Work of Tim Berniers-Lee. I always wondered if he had a MAC, because they had search capabilities on MAC’s, but it was limited to one machine. I see that contribution of his to link searches across networks as the big jump in the internet.

Tim Berniers-Lee used a Steve Job's NeXT
which was the start of Apple OS X which is Unix.

This NeXT Computer was used by Berners-Lee at CERN and became the world's first web server.

NeXT OS was sweet, and technically should have won. Sigh.
