Re: 1500-valve computer
That's MU1. Do a search on Manchester Museum of Science and Technology. They've got a rebuild of her that they run every week.
IIRC there was a competition for the best program to run on her when they built her. Someone who did an egg timer won it. Cheers Robin |

Interesting video clip - complete with monster Cossor scope in the background. Wish you could actually see what was being read from the CRT when it was giving the calculation result. TTFN, Jon |
