Catch and Halt Fire - Drama set in early days of personal computing

I've no doubt that women were in the minority in the computer biz in the 1980s (as they remain today). I do take umbrage with Sellam's supposition that there were no women at all with technical knowledge (or if there were, they were all apparently ugly) -- this is demonstrably untrue and it seems an odd point to bring up as a criticism <<<<0/7522 - Release Date: 05/19/14 Internal Virus Database is out of date. <<<< In the 1960s/early 1970s there was quite a high proportion of women in programming/systems analysis/management, a fair number in operations (though there was some doubt about employing women on night shifts), and, of course, almost all data-prepartion staff (I don't think we ever saw a woman in (hardware) maintenance and very few in sales (other than the photos in brochures). This was two-fold in reason: We needed all the competent staff we could get There was no "glass ceiling" OK, by the '80s this was changing but there were still plenty of intelligent and good-looking women in the business. It may well be that those who were intelligent enough for deep technical roles were too intelligent to waste time and money on "fashion".
