For me this computer provided one of those rare aha! moments. I finally got what all the fuss about Cellular Automata (CA) and Conway's 'Game of Life' (GoL) is all about. I'm aware that the GoL has been proved to be Turing Complete too, but then in the case of WireWorld CA, seeing is believing. It is said "a picture is worth a thousand words", in this case, a picture [1] is worth a tome [2].
