OT, but of interest to a few people here :-)
The venerable PDP-8 was introduced in 1965 today (or tomorrow if you're on
the wrong side of the date line). It was the first computer I ever
used, back around 1970 (I think I'd just left school and was checking out
the local University's computer department, with a view to majoring in
Computer Science (which I did)).
