Difference Engine No. 2 Exhibit Open House

The Difference Engine No. 2 Exhibit, on display for the first time in North America, will spend a year at the Computer History Museum. Visitors to the Museum will have the unprecedented opportunity to see and hear the Engine working – a stunning display of Victorian mechanics and one of the earliest designs for an automatic computing engine. The machine, one of only two ever built, is an arresting spectacle.
