Sir Charles Dunstone is accompanied by National Museum of Computing volunteer Jill Clarke, who first proposed the creation of the Software Gallery. Here they look at a display with a PC broken down into its constituent parts to demonstrate how software powers every component of the computer. 

"Our museum has some of the most amazing working hardware on display, but as a software engineer, I felt we were missing a huge part of the computing heritage story: the development of software," said Clarke.
