Trivia Question

you have opened up a can of worms now...or maybe I have because
of my comment... what is your definition of a computer? My first
thought was the HP65 that was programmable and that was 1974.
Early computers didn't have to have a language like BASIC. They
just needed to be able to run a program that a user could put
in.
Best regards, Steve Thatcher
