Explanation

The IBM 701, announced in 1952 and released in 1953, was IBM's first production computer designed for scientific work. It was called the "Defense Calculator" and was IBM's first true electronic computer. The S/360 (1964) was the first mainframe FAMILY, but not the first mainframe. ENIAC was not an IBM product. IBM 601 was a punch card machine, not a mainframe computer.
