Dear Inforooters
The Swiss Communications Museum in Bern exhibits a vacuum tube module that
should, according to their legend, come from the ENIAC (see IMG_6345
attached). However, the module has a little tag at one end that clearly
identifies it as coming from Remington Rand Eckert-Mauchly Division (see
IMG_6352 attached). I strongly suspect that this module does not originate
from the ENIAC. I think that it could well originate from a UNIVAC I
computer. Can anyone help to correctly identify this module?
P.S. The copyright of the pictures is with the Swiss Communications Museum
in Bern. I have been given them to try and find out more about the module.
Thanks a lot.
