Tony doesn't like RPi. Not surprising, it seems Tony doesn't like much
beyond early HP calculators, and only if misspelled. (Note: what's
generally considered the first "real" spell checker was created in 1971,
on the PDP-10 at SAIL. Early work goes back to the late 1950s/early
1960s. Is that sufficiently vintage?)
Some people are very confused about computer security.
Some people are very confused about computers that don't run MS-Windows.
Really, they exist, and many of them are quite useful. Some of them came
before MS-Windows. I can point you at some books about this. With
pictures, if needed.
And... that seems to be about it. Can we move on, please? -- Ian
