Best Answer

There are no valves in a modern computer. If by valves you mean vacuum tubes, the equivalent is a transistor. Modern CPUs have many transistors/gates on their dies. The SandyBridge i7, a near-top end general purpose computer COU can have 2.2 billon transistor elements on the CPU die. Of course there are many more transistors incorporated in the logic chips, controllers and video cards in a computer as well.

Did they mean to create the three valved trumpet?

Yes! Before the invention and eventual use of valves (ca 1830), keyed trumpets/bugles were used. These worked much like modern day woodwinds, but with many fewer keys. In the 1830's, a competition took place between keyed and valved trumpets. Needles to say, valves won.
