Not to disregard Turing here as I believe he is still one of the greats of computing, but the idea that he "Almost Singlehandedly" did anything is to the discredit of the thousands of workers at Bletchley Park alongside him, and the Polish cryptographers who initially cracked several versions of Enigma in the 1930s and went on to teach the Bletchley how they did it.

Took the plunge and swapped my desktop over to NIXOS a couple days ago, honeslty fairly impressed with the experience so far

I'm from the UK and this isn't too much of an issue beyond the couple of usual idiots. Went to the US though and it was insane, we were getting overtaken by school busses going 95. We were at the speed limit and getting overtaken by almost everything.
