Who built the first quantum computer using at least two qubits?

Another noteworthy example of an early quantum computer may be Kwiat, Weinfurter, Herzog, Zeilinger, and Kasevic's early-90's instantiation of their improved bomb-tester, based on the quantum Zeno ...

Physical interpretation of a 2-photon-qubit system occupying the antisymmetric Bell state

The confusion here arises because of not being careful about what the labels inside the kets mean. When we talk about the Bell states (or about the phenomena of entanglement), we consider two ...

Physical interpretation of a 2-photon-qubit system occupying the antisymmetric Bell state

You're exactly right that indistinguishable bosons are represented by symmetric states. However, when we think about a photons in QIS, we often think about them interacting with beamsplitters. When a ...
