Made of Awesome!
The wonderful Computer History Museum, just down the road from me in the old SGI HQ building, has just received a difference engine.
A modern, WORKING reconstruction of the famous Babbage Difference Engine, constructed by The Science Museum in London (who have the original, too), funded by Nathan Myrhvold of Microsoft riches. It's supposed to go on display May 10 for a year, and then will sit in Nathan's living room.
How cool is THAT?
