Cincom
The history of the software industry really follows the history of Cincom. Cincom began in 1968 when the company was founded by Tom Nies “with $600, a card table and a dream.” That dream, selling computer software separately from hardware, revolutionized the way computers and their components were sold, and pioneered the software industry.
