This is off-topic, but there was prior work on the Mark I, in Germany by 
Zuse, and in England on the code breaking project.  There is no clear 
inventor of the computer in the eyes of most historians.  Much of the 
controversy is covered in chapter 8 of "ENIAC" by Scott McCartney and other 
books such as ""Portraits in Silicon".  Iowa State University seems 
overzealous in promoting Atanasoff.
