James,
Enigma machines were portable - sorry. Or did you mean it was one of the machines to help crack the enigma codes?



Col,
Correct, called the Bombe -



"The Bombe was a development of an original Polish "cryptologic bomb": designed in 1938 by Polish Cipher Bureau cryptologist Marian Rejewski. Legendary "father of cybernetics" Alan Turing also was one of the original designers of this machine (together with Gordon Welchman), which succesfully emulated wheel-settings of ENIGMA during WW2."
