And no one has had the utter madness to suggest a
replica of the Mark I
or II relay machine..... or the SSEC.... or any of the Bell System relay
computers....
Relays don't normally glow, alas, but they do make nice sounds.
My preference is for a digital computer using water instead of
electricity, but no one's mentioned one of those yet.
