| This statement: '''
| |
| A '''computer''' is any device (mechanical, electronic, or human) capable of manipulating symbols according to a set of rules, sometimes called a [[Lambda Calculus|calculus]]. Although most people associate the word ''computer'' with modern desktop PCs, those machines are only the latest generation of computers to achieve widespread use, and at their core are very much like a child using arithmetic to add numbers together.''' is nice but I don't see that it helps the intro right now. I'm placing it here in case anyone objects and wants to discuss.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 17:25, 3 May 2008 (CDT)
