What made me crack up is that I recognized the photo on the second
page; just this past weekend (easter sunday) I tried making the very
same photo (and failed due to my flash being off): it's the Cray at
the Deutsches Museum in M?nchen. My picture also has a tour group
gawking at the IBM 360 in the background.

Going on a topic drift, the Zuse, that is a thing to behold!

Sadly, I had to rush though that portion of the museum. The whole
museum deserves a multi-day visit, not just an afternoon.
