"Well, we are two Ukrainians who studied computer science at a university a while back. Both deeply passionate about computer science, sometime ago for our gradate work we developed an algorithm for detecting plagiarism in content. Once the project was completed, we saw what it has become. It was an amazing and useful tool for students and teachers to check if they or someone they know has plagiarized. Now finished with school, we thought this could really be useful to the public.

Are you maybe a bit let down by the low resolution of chip photographs on the web or by complex diagrams that reveal very little about how circuits work?"

Fascinating computer history project.
