recorded: november 19, 2010 over its 100 years in business, ibm has been credited with many developments in computer technology and has a long history of success. but it wasn't always so. in 1914 when thomas watson sr. joined what was then known as the 'computer-tabulating-recording corporation' morale was low and profits flat. but watson was a strong leader with a modern vision. in a world on the brink of automation, he foresaw the lucrative potential of business machines. he mobilized his employees to share that vision and, together, sell it to the world. this video, from the computer history museum's new exhibition: "revolution: the first 2000 years of computing" explores watson's leadership of ibm and how it has impacted business culture even today. opening in january 2011, "revolution: the first 2000 years of computing" will be the first major museum exhibition to trace the history of computers and information technology from the abacus to the internet. more than 1000 artifacts from the museum's vast collection will be on view including rare computers, audio and video, photographs, games and hands-on displays. updates on the exhibit can be found on facebook at facebook computerhistory, on twitter computerhistory and at computerhistory exhibits revolution
