Before the 1940s, every radio and early computer relied on vacuum tubes—fragile glass bulbs that were hot, bulky, and prone to burning out. While they made long-distance calls and early broadcasting possible, they were inefficient "heaters" that happened to amplify signals as a side effect. The Christmas Breakthrough (1947)
This tiny device completely changed the blueprint for three major fields, as outlined in the seminal text Principles of Transistor Circuits by S.W. Amos:
