The computer and its first inventor. Who was?

Who is the inventor of the first Computer ..?
If someone showed you and you asked "Who invented the computer", as you reply? Bill Gates? Steve Jobs? Al Gore? Or say you're deeper into the story and respond with names such as Alan Turing? Konrad Zuse? Turing is a person who in 1930, has put gurëthemelin for computer science, and Zuse, in almost the same time, has created something called the "Z1", and is generally known as "the first computer programmable friendly."
And in spite of all the names mentioned may be wrong, depending on what stage will bring the results of a research team from Britain and their millions of dollars invested in this thing over the next decade.
Question of the team, started by New York Times: "A reveals an eccentric mathematician named Charles Babbage, the first programmable computer in 1830, a hundred years before his idea be put into action in the modern form of Alan Turing? "
Charles Babbage? He was born in 1791, and died in 1871? Who has tried to create something called "differentiation IRC 'during the first half of the nineteenth century, a kind of mechanical calculator designed to calculate the different sets of numbers? Some say that he, not Turing or Zune, is the true father of modern computer.
I worked for a company that has had his name in 1994. Babbages, chain of shopping centers that later merged with Software Etc.. And before the bankrupt parent company, it was taken by Leonard Riggio of Barnes & Noble's, and later joined the existing network of GameStop. I remember how our store has had a plate of agents in its front that read Babbages and an explanatory description detailing who he was and why such a weird name fit with a store at that time, mainly sell products based on the PC.Babbage never built "motor differentiation" - a mechanical calculator with thousands of pieces - due to extraordinary costs and political disagreements, but the innovator left legacy as his plans to complete, and in 1991, the Science Museum in London in fact built it (the printing was completed in 2000). And as expected, the calculator works.
But the differentiating engine can only make routine calculations and was not able to check the results to change the path. Babbage as a result had larger plans to create something called the "Analytical Engine", a monster machine the size of a room and CPU'ne his memory and ability to be programmed with Drilling cards, which he The imagined for not never built beyond a test piece, before I die. Problem: Where the plans were completed Differential Engine, Analytical those for the engine were still under development.
Science Museum in London, which plans to build analytic engines are Babbages, a half century later, is planning to bring online the plans about next year where others can put their thoughts. One of the main questions that the project wants to answer is whether Babbage would have been able to build the whole engine.
If the answer is yes, "it could challenge the academic belief that Alan Turing, not Babbage, designed the first computer for general use. And while the question nowadays is still entirely academic, machine building, assuming it is possible to prove some fascinating things "
