UNIVAC I
The UNIVAC I (UNIVersal Automatic Computer I) was the first commercial computer produced in the United States.〔The first commercial computer in the world was the BINAC built by the Eckert–Mauchly Computer Corporation and delivered to Northrop Aircraft Company in 1949.〕 It was designed principally by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, the inventors of the ENIAC. Design work was started by their company, Eckert–Mauchly Computer Corporation, and was completed after the company had been acquired by Remington Rand (which later became part of Sperry, now Unisys). In the years before successor models of the UNIVAC I appeared, the machine was simply known as "the UNIVAC".〔Johnson, L.R., "Coming to grips with Univac," Annals of the History of Computing, IEEE , vol.28, no.2, pp.32,42, April–June 2006. doi: 10.1109/MAHC.2006.27〕
The first UNIVAC was accepted by the United States Census Bureau on March 31, 1951, and was dedicated on June 14 that year.〔(Reference: CNN's feature on the 50th anniversary of the UNIVAC ).〕 The fifth machine (built for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission) was used by CBS to predict the result of the 1952 presidential election. With a sample of just 1% of the voting population it famously predicted an Eisenhower landslide while the conventional wisdom favored Stevenson.
