Thinking about a Britain and American alone against Hitler scenario also makes you wonder how the A-Bomb scenario would have played out - it might have been used in Europe first.

That's the "what if" option I've heard, that the A-bomb would have been used in Europe, also if Russia wasn't sucking up all those Germans resources waht else might the Germans have been able to develop faster? Jets, Rockets, better subs? They were developed late in the war but might have been sped up if resources were available.

Yep, by not devoting so many resources against Russia, Hitler could have thrown a lot of money at wonder weapon projects.

Hitler's bad strategy and bad generalship sure helped us win that war. The decision to attack Russia before finiishing off Britain was one of the worst.
