It is lots of events, but they are tight enough to one another to make up one single period in History that you can describe and wrap your head around. They were all close enough that I went into college using a typewriter and looking up **** on paper for my work and left campus four (ok, five) years later using MS Word and email. HUGE jump.
There are a few unique events within it, though. AOL mailong a billion disks, which introducted the US to the Internet (NOT the WWW, though) and the launch of Windows 95, which introducted the graphic user interface, married DOS to it and then integrated a web browser. That one piece of software revolutionized how personal computing was done and is still done.
