The History of Computing

Black Marble took a trip down technology memory lane with a visit to the National Museum of Computing.  Black Marble proudly sponsor this important organisation – which is showcasing the pioneering work of the first computer developers who cracked the Enigma codes right through the growth of the personal computer to the present day technology boom.

During our visit to the museum, volunteers Kevin Murrell (far left) and Bob Jones were kind enough to give us a behind the scenes tour, as well as an account of Colossus (right) – one of which is now operating in the world’s first computer centre.
