His name is John Atanasov and he is bulgarian, but he lives in America and his sponsors are Americans, because of stupid Bulgarian government, which don't want to help on Atanasov with finances. If this had happened, now all over the world would be knew bulgarian languagage, which is one of the most hard languages by the way.

The computer as we it see it now simply evolved and if you dig up the archives or wikipedia your claim shall look disputable
Gates is responsible for PC
Chinese are credited to alcabdebra or the counting machine
Govts are always stupid why blame the Bulgarian
Have checked that Greek link which invented the computer
The computer as we know it now is the result of the IC
and otherwise you may like to credit anyone
now how id that
Who invented the internet
the express highway of information

Atanasov was born in Hamilton, New York and had lived his entire life in US so strictly speaking, he was an American in a sense. Just imagine in the war-ravaged Europe in 1940s even if he had been supported by Bulgarian gov. , had he any chance to invent the first computer. So I accept that Atanasov, a descendant of Bulgarian, invented the first computer.
