Before Bill Gates, Tim Berners-Lee, Linus, RMS, and
Al Gore, there was John von Neumann.

Tomorrow is his 100th birthday.
He was arguably the most influential person in computing,
and some argue, smarter than Albert Einstein.

Anyway, Einstein got help from his first wife...
dunno about von Neumann's wife.

I will celebrate tomorrow.
