    This list would be even better if you had sourced the quotes. A little representation for those whose minds actually thought this stuff up isn’t too much to ask. Otherwise a good list.

    I think the woodpecker one refers to the fact that woodpeckers hack away at wood so if buildings were as suspectable to ‘hacking’ as programs are, then they would all collapse :)

  • roont

    Albert Einstein didn’t say that. In Einsteins day the best computers in the world were as large as rooms. And they were certainly not incredibly fast. I’ve read a lot about Einstein and never heard him quoted saying the word computer.
