The biggest problem with the Bombe is it's impossible to take it anywhere! Oh, it's portable enough, even has a convenient carry handle. Explaining it to security though might be somewhat problematic
It doesn't help that its name is
Bombe.
The average security bloke would focus in on
Bomb without the trailing 'e' and go ballistic.
I figured if I ever do take it anywhere I would call it a Turing Machine, which technically the real Bombe isn't of course. Although mine is built on a Raspberry Pi (and the Arduino) both of which are Turing complete I guess?
Or I could just call it Christopher Jr.
