Okay:
Mark I was enourmous in size, measuring 8 feet high, 51 feet long and three feet deep. It weighed 5 tons, used 530 miles of wire and 730,000 separate parts. The operation of these parts was powered and synchronized by a long horizontal rotating shaft. A four horsepower engine drives the mechanical parts.
Harvard Mark I, an early protocomputer, built during World War II in the United States. While Vannevar Bush was working on analog computing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), across town Harvard University professor Howard Aiken was working with digital devices for calculation. He had begun to realize in hardware something like the 19th-century English inventor Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, which he had read about. Starting in 1937, Aiken laid out detailed plans for a series of four calculating machines of increasing sophistication, based on different technologies, from the largely mechanical Mark I to the electronic Mark IV.
