She holds her head within her hands quietly reeling If only he could understand what she's feeling She moves into me to kiss my shoulder With emergency for me to hold her It's all I want when I'm lost It's all I need when I'm down It's all I have when I lose It's just a bruise He holds his head within his hands contemplating If only she could understand without waiting She moves into me to kiss my shoulder With emergency for me to hold her  It's all I want when I'm lost She's all I need when it's old She's all I have when I lose It's just a bruise And its all we ever know It's all I want when I'm down She's all I need when it's old It's all I have when I lost It's just a bruise

Historia detrás de la creación de Colossus (1944)

El primer ordenador electrónico programable del mundo diseñado por el Dr. Thomas Flowers, y no digo más, sólo vean el vídeo para darse cuenta de lo importante que fue durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

The story of what went on at Bletchley Park during World War 2 is inspiring but what happened to the people, the equipment and the intellectual property at the end of the war is shocking.

Here is a short film made by Google to celebrate Colossus and those who built it, in particular Tommy Flowers. Colossus was the world's first electronic computer, used for code-breaking at Bletchley Park during WW2. A working rebuilt Colossus can be seen at The National Museum of Computing in the UK.
