    Ok, and how many people, outside of those that used them, would ever have any clue what that was? How many regular everyday americans do you think would know what you’re talking about, either back then, or today, if you said you work with an “ENIAC”?

    I think officermike’s point fully still stands.

      Sure, there were (and apparently still are) ignorant people. But my argument would be just as valid as (possibly more) both yours and officermikes.
