In Reply to: ENIAC : Think some blackgates might have helped? posted by SnaggS on August 15, 2006 at 17:57:55:
I suspect this is an ANALOG computer. (I should know this but I don't). What that boils down to is banks of OP amps that are connected via patch bays to do calculations.A DIGITAL computer could also be fabricated with tubes. All you need is two triodes to make a flip-flop which is a i bit binary storage device. Now just make another 1000 or so of these 12AX7 flip-flops and you might be able to mimike a $4 Wall Mart calculator.
