Pretty soon, casual things like "paper", "pen", "balls" and "shirts" will be verboten.

Remember the 286, 386, 486 microprocessors..... well Intel tried to trade mark 586 which they couldn't. Thus the Pentium was born.....
I clearly remember there was a bug in the P90 cpu because of a university assignment.....
My friend heard 2 professors discussing why everyone got the wrong answer..... their conclusion was because of the P90 bug....little did they realise, everyone copied off the same person, over 100 of us. ????

I remember these days, I also remember the Pentium 66mhz debacle where the cpu chips were getting far too hot for the cooling that Intel recommended.  Funny that those machines were considered 'SO FAST' at the time.
