Submission + - 1935 Meccano "Dam Busters" Computer restor (computerworld.co.nz)

rob1959 writes: "A 1935 analogue computer, built at Cambridge University and used to help plan the "Dam Busters" attacks on the Ruhr hyro dams in WWII has been restored and put on diplay at Auckland's Museum of Transport and Technology. The computers came to NZ around 1950 and was used, ironically, to build hydro dams there — and to calculate rabbit population numbers."
