Introducing Bill Phillips' amazing hydro-mechanical economic computer. A live demonstration of the only working MONIAC in the Southern Hemisphere. This is located in the Reserve Bank Museum & Education Centre, Wellington, New Zealand.

I wonder if Compaq have something todo with Bank Museum & Education Centre, Wellington, New Zealand, because if I'm not mistaken I saw their logo at 0.17 seconds.
This is something that you dont see everyday it is a well made and well thought invention. But the question I have in mind is it feasible to be used in the homes or can have a practical usage. Anyway if this kind of technology will be improved it can be used my bitcoin miners as a source of energy to run their data centers to mine bitcoin and other altcoins without having the problem on power expenses.
Unfortunately sir, it seems to be an old, simple machine for demonstrating economic concepts. Sure would have been awesome to have a cool-looking, water-powered, electricity-generating machine at home.
