Fallout 3 was based on technology from the 40s/50s, but the game takes place in 2277 after 300 years of nuclear fallout - meaning that the advancement of technology was hindered severely in that time, leaving them with very basic early 70s computers.

I agree with this man. Everybody, power down your rigs as we mourn our loss.

Bless thy great man, for he thee great fore-father of all of our communities, lest be for not him, we would not be here as of now. I thank you, Doctor. I shall cry electric tears tonight, in honor of your service and dedication to being fucking awesome.
Alan Turing, the real father of the computer died in the 50's. Persecuted for being gay, he killed himself. State sanctioned persecution none-the-less.
Either way sad to see this guy go. Had a huuuuge influence on the entire last few decades.

Funny, the brits made the first computer, then the Americans made the first PC.
