A machine is any mechanical or organic device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of tasks. It normally requires some energy source ("input") and accomplishes some sort of work.
People have used mechanisms and machines to amplify their abilities since before written records were available. Generally these devices decrease the amount of force required to do a given amount of work, alter the direction of the force, or transform one form of motion or energy into another.
The mechanical advantage of a simple machine is the ratio between the force it exerts on the load and the input force applied. This does not entirely describe the machine's performance, as force is required to overcome friction as well. The mechanical efficiency of a machine is the ratio of the actual mechanical advantage (AMA) to the ideal mechanical advantage (IMA). Functioning physical machines are always less than 100% efficient.

Blogs - How I Think the Card Industry Will Be Saved
Adam McFarland Wed, 18 Jun 2008 11:21:45 -0000
Way back in 2004 when I started SportsLizard I couldn’t find too many other sites where collectors spoke their minds. In the past four years my role in the industry has changed. I went from collector, to collector who owned a collectibles business and wrote about it, to business owner who rarely collects and spends [...]
