Unfortunately, your first computer had a short life expectancy.
But, it never needed to be rebooted!!

Yep, back then "computers" referred to people, not machines. And oh, the tricks we had! Is a number divisible by three? Multiplying by 9 on your fingers, etc.

Because the pencil was manipulated by our fingers, did that make it a _digital_ computer?? ✏️
