The Koenigsegg CCX supercar is one of Europe's premiere racing cars, but it is only available for consumption by those who have the ability to shell out the money needed for such an expensive, yet luxurious purchase. The Competition Coupe X is one of Koenigsegg's latest exotic car creations, all of which are known to be some of the best speed cars in the world. Koenigsegg sports cars are not available for mass consumption, mainly due to the large price of such automobiles. Base price is $540,000 + taxes, while fully equipped supercar costs $600,900 + taxes. The Koenigsegg CCX is a great purchase for those who can afford it, due to the fact that it is the tenth anniversary issue of the 1996 CX supercar model, which is one of Koenigsegg's best creations.

The supercharged V8 806 bhp @ 6900 rpm (redline at 7600 rpm) engines inside 1180 kg (2691 lbs) Koenigsegg CCX exotic cars are specially created for the people who design the Koenigsegg CCX though the design is highly based off of the Ford Modular engines, which provide other foreign companies with some of the best engine templates available. The engine is very compatible is various fuel types, and is able to run via gasoline and other bio-fuels, which are proving to be highly marketable, as well as the cars that can accommodate such technological advances. It is fully compliant with California emission regulations and is a street-legal motor. Koenigsegg CCX prides itself on being one of the best producers of tough, speedy cars, while also trying to adhere to environmental procedures that are growing with the high fuel prices and a stricter outlook on global warming.

The Koenigsegg CCX is the world's fastest car with a V8 engine, and has consistently won awards from various institutions all over the world, not only for its design and ability to operate at high speeds, but also for the ability of the people at Koenigsegg CCX to keep reinventing their product in a way that helps other philanthropic organizations. The Koenigsegg CCX is a great supercar to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the CX, while still being a great car independent of any others.

26 days is important in the history of computing

TTO - Street computing industry become modern as today is not simple. It includes many columns marked a landmark in the period of development vary. Following is the total time of 26 have the most influence, recorded marks can not be forgotten in the history of computing industry.

1. On 23-12-1834: Charles Babbage introduced computer analysis

Babbage (the British) began working in the field of machinery in 1821, he believes there will be a co machine can perform the operations accounting faster, more accurate man. In 1834, a machine calculates that his life, although not perfect but it is an event with greater meaning. The first time a computer analysis can be programmed with a large number of operators.Designed initially rude, but it includes most of the features of a computer so modern electronic later. The machine was programmed using the voucher perforation (punched cards). It hosted the numbers, the results immediately and there is a "mill" separate, where processing algorithms. The separate storage of the (memory) and "mill" (processor) is the basis for modern computers

2. On 22-10-1925: semiconductor devices (transistor) is patent

Although Julius Edgar Lilienfeld never put his design into reality, but the equipment he was creative patent in 1925 was developed, and improved mass manufacturing as today. The development is very slow because in the 1950 transistor beginning to replace vacuum tube (vacuum tube) in the computer, allowing the devices smaller and more accurate

3. On 1-1-1939: Hewlett-Packard was founded, the birth of Silicon Valley (USA)

Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard, the ones at Stanford University (USA), decided to work together late 1930. In 1938 they started producing computer generated variation dongde check for audio equipment, storage in a small number of houses after 367 Addison Avenue, Palo Alto. It is also the start of the birth of Silicon Valley.Machine creates fluctuating success, leadership and Hewlett Packard official working with partners. The company developed rapidly, introducing many new products and management style openly. HP today is one of the manufacturer's largest computers

Colossus computer is a device calculates electronics has been designed and used by the decoded by the British to read the message was encrypted by Nazi Germany during World War two times. This equipment is calculated, and electronics, and the number may be programmed first in the world. Use vacuum tube (vacuum tube) to perform calculations.Colossus was designed by engineer Tommy Flowers with the support of Coobs Allen, Sid Broadhurst and Bill Chandler in research department of Post and Telecommunications (UK). Form may Colossus Mark 1 Introduction on May 12-1943. Then improve the Colossus Mark 2 active on May 7-1944.The Colussus was born signal era of participatory computer into war.

5. On 14-2-1946: ENIAC inaugurated


ENIAC, short for Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, be creative after the Second World War by American forces. Computers have a size rooms, was built from 18,000 vacuum tube (while Colossus is just 1,500) should be much stronger and more flexible.ENIAC can perform 5,000 calculations a second, 1,000 times faster urgently any computer at that time. ENIAC stopped running in 1955.

6. 12-1954 Month: sample desktop of Casio

14-machine type A is described as a small set of mind with a 1m be wide and weighing 140kg. The machines make a revolution in the can calculate everything in electronic equipment. The company later was born a variety of machines than small, feature better, cheaper. 15 years later here is still an attractive goods users

7. On 4-9-1956: the introduction of the IBM 305 RAMAC



305 RAMAC, is the first hard drive was born. From here the computer can store digitalized data. At first it hosted an amount of information is very small less than 5MB. Even now a USB storage fold hundreds of times this machine .

8. On 29-10-1969: Binh Minh era of the Internet

In 1969, other researchers research department under the Ministry of National Defense American use of the phone line to connect two computers together, one in Los Angeles and one at Stanford University near San Francisco. This is the first experiment for the network ARPANET was born and then the Internet.

9. 11 and 12-1971: The first message was sent

The first message sent between two computers up and sent by Ray Tomlinson, a computer programmer, the American end of 1971. He does not remember the exact date and details messages sent also be lost. He has no development of the @ sign, although the first to send email.

10. On 16-4-1977: Apple II era notice of a computer household



Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak produce the Apple computer first. Apple I is made by hand and sold only with the few. But Apple II was closer to predict with computer generated not only by human beings, which can be a friend of the man, Computers are part of technology as the rich personal life.

At first Apple computer I and II have spreadsheet applications small, can be used in business schools and families. This form may be upgraded in 1980 and figures to sell up to 5 million machines

11. On 22-5-1980: the life Pac-Man

12. On 3-4-1981 laptops first was born

At first it looked like a pair of handbags rather than a laptop model, weighs 10kg and Screen 5 inch. But really is a computer can move first to be born. This device is proven not only computer at home to schools, offices, which can bring any where. A first step towards computing everywhere.

13. On 12-8-1981: IBM released "PC"

IBM entered the computer market family did not have advanced technology, but their products become the template for the earliest. Department of borrowers because the computer is not too close to IBM, which opened to meet potential future as the department can disassemble and upgraded. Since opening should allow the manufacturers of devices with lower cost competition.

The first time IBM combination with other technology companies producing another computer, such as processors from Intel, the operating system from Microsoft small. Two years later, the operating system this victory and the standard for 16 bit generation of IBM.

14. On 3-3-1981: BBC Microcomputer machine
