Thanks for this post, Jim.
I found the Computer HIstory Museum web site
(http://ed-thelen.org/comp-hist/example-tour.html)
especially interesting. Reading about ENIAC, JOSS, etc. puts things into
perspective. Designing and building the earliest computers was incredibly
difficult, and yet people did it. Reminds you that you shouldn't say
something's impossible just because it's difficult and expensive.
