A history of Digital Equipment Corporation, which pioneered minicomputers after being founded in 1957 and was acquired by Compaq in 1998  —  One of the early pioneers in computing, the company disappeared in the late 1990s.  —  Even though very few of the early players in technology still exist, we use their creations to this day.
