This is an image found on Wikipedia of a NeXT workstation (a NeXTcube), which was used by British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee as the first ever Web server on the World Wide Web when he was working at CERN. The NeXT workstation is now being kept in Microcosm, the public museum at the Meyrin site of CERN, Geneva, Switzerland.

This NeXT workstation (a NeXTcube) was used by Tim Berners-Lee as the first Web server on the World Wide Web. Today, it is kept in Microcosm, the public museum at the Meyrin site of CERN, in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland.

The document resting on the keyboard is a copy of “Information Management: A Proposal,” which was Berners-Lee’s original proposal for the World Wide Web.

The label on the cube itself has the following text: “This machine is a server. DO NOT POWER IT DOWN!!”

Just below the keyboard (not shown) is a label which reads: “At the end of the 80s, Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web using this Next computer as the first Web server.”
