Just came across a list of the first 100 .coms to be registered via this blog post. IBM just missed out on the first 10. The list is comprised of the usual suspects, barring Microsoft (not surprising considering that the period is between early ’85 to late ’87). Here’s the top 15 from the list:
- SYMBOLICS.COM
- BBN.COM
- THINK.COM
- MCC.COM
- DEC.COM
- NORTHROP.COM
- XEROX.COM
- SRI.COM
- HP.COM
- BELLCORE.COM
- IBM.COM
- SUN.COM
- INTEL.COM
- TI.COM
- ATT.COM
