Displayed very prominently on the main lobby floor of the Museum of Science in Boston, Mass. is an extremely large "computer" made entirely out of wooden Tinkertoy� components and, according to the plaque attached thereto, it even "worked" at one time. I am not making this up. Been there, seen that. Several times.
May I suggest an 8-year-old be given a Tinkertoy� set and told "Here is your computer"? May I also suggest an end to this thread even though we have not yet dredged up memories of IBM 650s in the 1950s?
