possible error?
It was the first successful system designed ?from the ground up? to advance automated data processing by replacing the physical cards and associated electro-mechanical gear with purely digital processing and magnetic tape or disk storage, and thus marked IBM?s change in focus from analog to digital computing;

An analog computer is one that uses continous signals for its "processing". Didn't all these old punch card tabulating machines process discrete (binary) signals?
