Also, I wouldn't call difference engine a computer, as it was only doing one thing. Babbage had plans for an "analytical engine" which would have been partly programmable general-purpose machine, thus meriting the title of a predecessor of a computer. ]]>Jul 26th 2007 7:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/Jul 26th 2007 6:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/Jul 26th 2007 6:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/Jul 26th 2007 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/Jul 26th 2007 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/26/researchers-develop-nanochip-based-on-babbages-difference-engin/Jul 26th 2007 11:36PM
