Line 30:
This allows the original question to be made even more specific. Turing now restates the original question as "Let us fix our attention on one particular digital computer C. Is it true that by modifying this computer to have an adequate storage, suitably increasing its speed of action, and providing it with an appropriate programme, C can be made to play satisfactorily the part of A in the imitation game, the part of B being taken by a man?"<ref name=P442/>
Hence, Turing states that the focus is not on "whether all digital computers would do well in the game nor whether the computers that are presently available would do well, but whether there are imaginable computers which would do well".<ref name=P436>{{Harvnb|Turing|1950|p=436}}</ref> What is more important is to consider the advancements possible in the state of our machines today regardless of whether we have the available resource to create one or not.
