Vintage Computer Festival - June 19th Bletchley Park

Postby gbulmer on Mon Jun 14, 2010 10:53 pm

Some of you folks may be interested in the upcoming "Vintage Computer Festival" on June 19th at Bletchley Park, where we invented the computer*, and built the first ones during WW2, to crack the Enigma codes.

Details at http://www.bletchleypark.org.uk/calendar/event_detail.rhtm?cat=special&recID=594620

* Yes, I know the USA claim they invented the computer, but the UK government is so secrative that they didn't file any patents, or even mention it for 40 or 50 years, just as they gave away our atomic weapon research for free, oh, and radar, penicilin, supersonic aircraft, rockets, ... And yes, we probably do deserve competent politicians, but there aren't any left in the packet.
