It's More Fun To Compute


What businesses are going to be extinct in a decades time? is very interesting reading. In the meantime, I am busy doing a machine OS rebuild, copying over all my old programmes with inbuilt hard to find registration numbers and that type of thing. More later.

Incidentally, the WOPR in Wargames was named after... Burger Kings fantastic meat Deathburger.

Comments:
indeed the WOPR was a a pun on the name of the real NORAD computer of that time, BURGR. Thus the writers took the pun and called it WOPR.
