Re:ENIAC wasn't the first computer (Score 1)

Acutally, I think the first computer was the Atanasoff Berry Computer (Ames Lab). A court trial voided the patent awarded to ENIAC. There's a lot at the site, but it's a must-read if you've ever belived that ENIAC was in any way the first computer. I've seen the ABC replica (at the Iowa State Fair, laugh, laugh) and it's not a very big machine, and it can do not a whole lot, but it's an electronic digital computer.
