It might seem a folly to want to build a gigantic, relatively puny computer at great expense 170 years after its invention. But the message of a completed Analytical Engine is very clear: it’s possible to be 100 years ahead of your own time.

Just think of the impact of the computer and ask yourself how different the Victorian world would have been with Babbage Engines at its disposal.
