Interesting Autobigraphical notes by German Scientist Konrad Zuse mentioning similarities between his work and the British endeavours with Colossus: http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~history/Zuse.html Another example of Nazi Germany's mistaken priorities. I wonder how much more useful Zuse's work could have been with the injection of a few Reichmarks from the V2 program and a release from military service.
