It depends on your definition of "computer"; there were many milestones. Most of the early electronic computers were not developed by companies, but rather by research organizations.
- In the 17th century, several people invented calculating machines.
- In 1833, Charles Babbage invented a complex, programmable calculating machine.
- In 1941, Konrad Zuse and his company Zuse Apparatebau, developed (in secret) an electronic, software-programmable computer.
- In 1943, the first Colossus computer was developed (in secret) by Tommy Flowers at the Post Office Research Station in London. These computers were used to crack German military codes.
- In 1944, the Mark I was developed by Harvard University and IBM. It was software-programmable, but lacked a conditional branch instruction.
- In 1946, construction of the ENIAC computer was completed at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. This was the first computer to be "Turing-complete", a mathematical criterion for generality. It was not, however, entirely software programmable.
- The first commercial computer was the Ferranti Mark 1, built by Ferranti International in the UK, and delivered to University of Manchester in 1951.
