		Having heard the testimony of Detective Ferranti and reviewing the videotape of the advisement and interrogation, the trial court entered an oral ruling and concluded that based upon the totality of the circumstance there were two independent reasons for suppressing Adkins’statements during the interrogation.
		The prosecution asserted that Detective Ferranti’s response "[did not] answer the question whatsoever, it simply tells [Adkins] when he’ll be advised."Here on appeal, however, the prosecution attempts to place significance on Detective Ferranti’s response as evidence that Adkins was trying to find out his options on when he would get a court appointed counsel.

	Ferranti Mark 1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The work on the many improvements on the Ferranti Mark 1 was shared between Ferranti personnel and University, with perhaps the biggest contribution coming from the two key members of the University staff who joined Ferranti in 1949, Geoff Tootill and especially Alec Robinson.
		Early programming on the Ferranti Mark 1 was horrific by modern standards, almost impossible without working to the base 32 (a 5 bit group), which meant remembering the 32 characters representing the different digits, which were based on the non-intuitive association between the (letter-shift) keyboard characters of the teleprinters and their 5-hole equivalent.
		A description of programming on the Ferranti Mark 1 is given separately, and there is a version of the first chapter of the Turing-Brooker Programming Manual.
