Not even the combined strength of Silver Age Superboy+Ultra Boy was able to put a dent in it... Nor did the combined energy attacks of the Silver Age LoSH have any effect on it: http://imgur.com/hBbiffF
M-EL, on the other hand, simply ate the Miracle Machine AND all of its energies: http://imgur.com/8BuD0JM
Yeah, though M-E Lad went insane as a result of this (and later finally cured in LSH #297), we see later in LSH v4 (which kinda contradicts things a bit), that he still has the energy inside him::
The energies of the MM corrupted him, yes. However, I was mainly talking about M-EL eating its housing/shell--the same housing/shell that the Silver Age LoSH couldn't even scratch.
Most don't realize how unbelievably impressive that is in itself. Consuming the MM's [infinite] energies is a different animal entirely.
It's cool, i wasn't disputing your post, just adding some info (that he housed those energies for a quite an amount of time).
Yup. And just so everybody knows, back in the day, Miracle Machine was just as powerful as it was in FC (slightest of thought can destroy the entire universe).
Adv. comics #367 is what i was actually referring to. Notice how the controller specifically says "Slightest".......we also know it to be true.
It's also the most powerful weapon they have despite having sh*t like the concentrator, which before the MM was introduced, was the most powerful weapon in the universe (featured in Adv. Comics #321), among other things.
A lot of the Silver Age 'tech' was just retarded... And the Concentrator was certainly no exception. When activated, the phucking thing absorbed ALL the power in the universe, of EVERY kind: http://i.imgur.com/xRl5Pkp.jpg http://i.imgur.com/QgW2TuS.jpg
That's why it could only be used for an instant at a time--while it was turned on, no power existed anywhere in the universe.

ME-Lad survived the crisis, and there's one for each version of the Legion. The first became a politician and celebrity on his home planet due in part to his time with the legion ("Trust me, I'm a senator"), second one was team chef, third was a government agent.
Matter Eater Lad not only takes the cake for least inspiring hero name, he also shares worst ever super power with Arm Fall Off Boy or whatever that dude's name is.
