Interview with One of ENIACs Inventors

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the dave-you-like-your-eniac-better-than-me-don't-you dept.

deeptrace writes "On the 60th anniversary of the ENIAC an old family friend of 'Pres' Eckert transcribed some interviews recorded before his death. Very interesting reading. They dispel a few myths, such as the lights didn't really dim when they turned it on, and the military officers did not salute ENIAC."

    Wikipedia is useful, but it's not a source. You might as well link to another /. post to prove a point.
