the computer is completely.. useless. many of the earlier ones were very, very useless. very expensive with a high environmental cost, and cost in human labor. and they still can’t – think, nor reproduce, because inherently, their design is wrong.

I lived on Charleston Rd and Steirling Rd the years of 1981-83 and my friend lived on Pear Ave just before the area became an industrial complex. I’m trying to get over how this world famous computer museum came to where I once picked apples and pears and pulled weeds in my backyard garden. This may be my ten seconds of fame as they say.

As a kid, my class once visited the Boston Museum of Science. I got to try a number game on a computer. That was 1965, does anyone know what it was? I wish I could remember. I still find it awesome, given the time. Sometimes I think people take our modern PCs for granted. All school computer classes should teach the subject’s history.

I visited the museum a couple of months ago. I was astonished to see the first 2 computers I used to write programs (assembly and Fortran II!). They were the Bendix G-15 and IBM-1620. Back in 1960. Great displays.
