Without actual intelligence, it can handle logic much faster than a human. It does, but does not create.
It would be more accurate to call it a calculating machine. Thinking, so far as is understood, is considered a biological trait.
No a programmer does not do everything I think they are hooked up to a machine which programs stuff!!
Alan Turing is considered to be the father of computers because he invented the Turing machine. The Turing machine is thought to be the first model of a computer.
Yes. The Gravograph IS700 is considered an CNC machine as it is ultimately controlled by sets of commands from a computer.
of course not! It is a machine
An ATM can be partially considered a computer and also considered a machine (because a computer itself is a machine) that is used to provide banking services to all customers who have a magnetic ATM or Debit card in their possession. It can dispense cash, print out balance statements, accept deposits, transfer funds etc.

Imagine two people, intelligent person A and thick person B. Both are Turing testing a machine. Person B, being thick, cannot tell that it is a machine. The Turing Test says that the machine is still thinking. Person A can see through it and can tell the difference between its responses and those of someone who is actually thinking. So the Turing Test says the machine is not thinking. So it is and it isn't thinking, a clear contradiction and thus the Turing Test cannot be correct.
At its simplest definition, virtualisation is the simulation of a computer through software. An example of where this is very handy is when you want your machine to run software that only runs on a different type of machine. With virtualisation, you can "trick" your machine into thinking it is the other type.
Analytical Engine
Yes, computer is a Dull machine, because it can only do certain thing for what it is programmed.
