You have no idea how right you are. I've come to the conclusion that computers hate me.
(And no, for anyone about to just it, I am not going to get a Mac or Linux-based computer instead.) |

I wondered about Rob's little typo there, but concluded that it was some sort of Limey slang.

Yay! It's good to hear you are still well, Daddy!
I hope you'll soon be able to get Internet. Quote:
Of course you're not going to get a Mac or Linux-based computer. There's no future in those:  -

If you ask me, it's still a computer, no matter what it's based upon. "A computer is a machine for manipulating data according to a list of instructions." So basically, you can call a loom working hole punch cards a computer. The Z3 was a computer, even though it's hardly comparable to the ones we know today (not to mention that it was incredibly hard to maintain working. If it got only a little dusty, it would no longer work, due to the fact that it was mechanical (I saw it in the museum in Berlin). -
