Some suggest that the German "Enigma Machine" was the first computer, others believe that it was simply a collection of gears and dials that allowed for a complex encryption of messages and that the British "Bombe" machine designed by Alan Turing to decrypt the German messages was the first computer.

But the question becomes, how complex must a device be before it is called a "computer"?
