The only ppl not to have the code was the americans....

Anyway this is a link to Alan Turing webpage...


Bletchley Park...  Cradle of computing as we know it!

Actually, I heard somewhere that a Pole was responsible for building a wooden replica of the Enigma Machine's internal gearing, but before it could be smuggled into allied hands the Royal Navy had captured a U Boat intact before it had the chance to transmit a distress signal and for all the codes to be changed.  Even with the actual machine, breaking the code was half the story as the code books were needed.  

Hence the development of electronic computers for code breaking purposes courtesy of Turing et al.

Turing et al? I thought it was Mel Gibson who invented the computer? Oh, no, he was the one who defeated the English at Bannockburn.
It must have been Tom Cruise then, he invented the computer...

Oh, and didn't Tom Hanks single-handedly defeat the Nazis?

Yeah, Final Fantasy was excellent, except for the dialog, and the plot.

Aki is yummy. There are some test renders around somewhere of Aki nude.

Those were fake, unfortunately. They're just Aki's head and hands pasted onto a real body. Looks crap, BTW.
