BTW, I would be surprised to find out that the Eniac didn't
use relays for power distribution... Hell, even the IBM 716
Line Printer I used to have had them for that (it used 220v
3-phase to drive a dynamotor which in turn generated the
50vdc power that was then distributed to the 711 card reader
and perhaps other peripherals).
