Turing Machine.  Double plus good.  Turing Test... not so important anymore.  It's fairly easy to design a program that will pass the Turing Test.

Ozymandias:
Nothing has ever truly passed the Turing test.

A few chat bot have fooled some rather simply minded and unexpecting people, but nothing has ever fooled 30% of judges during a 5-minute test, like Turing proposed.

Never even came close.

meddle:
Actually, it was a Pole named Rajewski that broke Enigma. He gave his devices to the Brits before Poland fell. Turing basically parallelized the process.

tedzsee:
This thread is so geeky that even i have not a clue what is going on.
