Steampunk dream

A campaign to build a prototype computer first envisaged by Babbage in 1837 is gathering steam.

It is the ultimate steampunk dream - had this machine been built when Babbage designed it we would have had a computer driven Victoria era.


I've pledged to donate £10 to the project - if you'd like to see Babbage's computer constructed please pledge your support.
