Bugs

A "Bug" is an error or problem in a software or hardware system. The term originates at Harvard University in August 1945 when the Mark I computer project staff notice something is wrong with one of the computer's circuits. After a lengthy search, someone locates and removes a two-inch moth from one of the computer cabinets. From then on, computer problems are referred to as bugs.
