All PC's, Laptops, Mainframes and multiple other types of computing devices that populate our lives are all Turin Machines because they conform to the defintions first formulated by Alan Turin.
Like hundreds of brilliant men and women over the last century he had to keep his attraction to other men a secret.
Similary for brilliant women, lesbians who found a more meaningful love with other women they too, even today in 2011 struggle with torment of being unable to openly express themselves to other like women, just as Alan Turin felt unable to openly express his feelings towards other like men.
Clearly a handsome man his life was like that of many Gay men at the time, one of torment and in his case double intense secrecy becuase he worked for British military intelligence, but it was the overwhelming depression of being treated by "the powers that be" and the unquestionable stupidity and cruelness of the world around him that drove him to suicide, he died at 41 after taking a bite from an apple laced with cyanide.
The symbology of his death is clear, though interpreted in different ways; human interpretation thus far, like machine interpretation is influenced by priorities within programs.

The exciled British Gay computing community of Gran Canaria pay tribute to Alan turin.
Next Year, 2012 will be the 60th anniversay of Alan Turins death.
Bravo to Gorden Browne for responding to the petition and publishing his thoughts which
