Well actually computers were around before the turn of the century.
But they were clockwork, it was 2nd generation computers that started using circuitry.
Maybe I'm just being pedantic but my point is machines have been used for calculations before modern warfare and they were made just because people could (e.g. Blaise Pascal's Arithmetic Machine).

By the way internet wasn't made fot MI, it's email FalterBefore-Me was tinking of. The internet was made a polish scientist (i think, i may be wrong) INSTEAD of doing his job: researching nuclear physics.

First ever successful email message "qwertyuiop". They just ran their finger along the keyboard becuase they got fed up typing meaningful messages that never worked.
