Happy Black History Month!
Dr Mark Dean is one of the main geniuses behind the AT bus (which allowed hardware to easily communicate) and the original IBM PC. He was director of IBM’s Austin Research Laboratory, and under his leadership, IBM developed the first 1GHz processor. In 1999, he led the team to create "Blue Gene", the fastest computer at the time.
