We met Gutenberg's printing press 300 years after its invention. (In my opinion, it is one of the main reasons for the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire.)
Thanks to the internet, we met this Gutenberg on the first day of its existence.😉😂
Nice, except the internet didn't exist when this Gutenberg was started:
Project Gutenberg began in 1971 when Michael Hart was given an operator’s account with $100,000,000 of computer time in it by the operators of the Xerox Sigma V mainframe at the Materials Research Lab at the University of Illinois.
