Broad question, but you might trying www.leo-computers.org.uk LEO I was the first business computer in the world developed by Lyons Tea Houses and Cambridge University and was first switched on on 17th November 1951 (56years ago)!!!!! A few years before this an office clerk with Lyons had visited the USA and seen compuers that were used by the miltary and USA statistics office for limited calculations. Because this was a time before regular air services he travelled back across the Atlantic on the Queen Mary and had time (what a luxury compared to todays rush) to ponder how a computer could automate office procedures such as a payroll. On his return to Lyons he submitted a report to the management of Lyons and they decided to provide some limited funds (about £30,000) and a man (the clerk) for a year to see what they could come up with. This all resulted in LEO I, followed by LEO II and then LEO III which I worked on when I left school in 1965.
