Ah, but you're missing the obvious: take a good look at your fingers
on your keyboard, and you just may be looking at something very
similar to the first computing device... now, if you've got your shoes
and socks off, take a look at the end of your feet opposite your
heels, and you may be looking at something very similar to the first
expansion chasis, which doubled the computer's word size. :-)
