How much ENIAC cost?
Roughly $500,000.
How much did it cost to build ENIAC?
it originally cost $500,000, and was government funded. Check below for more information http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eniac
How much was the eniac computer sold?
ENIAC was never sold, it was built to order on a cost plus wartime Army contract. The original estimated cost to build ENIAC in the contract was roughly $50,000, however by the time it was finished the final cost was over $500,000. About a year after completion, ENIAC was dissembled and shipped to the BRL Aberdeen where it was used for about a decade. The Army owned it from the day the contract was signed until it was retired.
How much energy did the eniac use?
The ENIAC used 160 kilowatts (160,000 watts).
What did Vannevar invent?
Vanevar Bush designed an electromechanical analog computer called the Differential Analyzer. Bush's machine cost about $500,000 to build. Much of the ENIAC architecture and programming system was derived from the Differential Analyzer, except ENIAC was all electronic and all digital. In Eckert and Mauchley's ENIAC proposal to the Army they estimated the cost to build at about $50,000. The Army took the proposal to Bush for evaluation, as he had the most experience with computing machines on this scale (even though his was analog and ENIAC was digital). Bush estimated cost to build at about $500,000... he was right! Vanevar Bush also had a lot to do with advising on ICBM development and the Space Program later.
How much do the ENIAC wires weigh?
ENIAC weighed in at over 30 tons and took up 1,800 sq feet of floor.
How much did the first computer cost and who created it?
Eckert and Mauchly, in their original ENIAC proposal estimated the total cost at about $50,000. When the proposal was shown to Vanevar Bush (designer of the analog Differential Analyzer) he estimated total cost at about $500,000. Bush was right.

How much floor did the ENIAC take up?
1,000 square feet
How much does a ENIAC weigh?
i don't know go ask Albert Einstein
What was the price of the eniac computer?
The ENIAC computer was built in the 1940s and was funded by the United States government. While there is no exact price available, it is estimated that the ENIAC project cost around $487,000.
