UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer) was one of the first commercial computers to be used in the United States.
Grace Hopper helped develop the
UNIVAC, the first general-purpose computer, a.k.a.

James Campbell, president and CEO of GE Appliances and Lighting, said, 'We've come a long way since we installed a
UNIVAC system here nearly 60 years ago.'
The ENIAC and its improved versions were purchased four years later, in 1950, by Remington Rand and became
UNIVAC, with its descendents in turn made and marketed by Unisys of Blue Bell, PA.
