So what , you may ask. These quotes were taken from a book called Further Computer Appreciation, By T.F . Fry, published by Newnes-Butterworth in 1970Quote:

Note no mention of virus, worms etc.
Could the above quotes be just as relevant today as they were back then? And yes I do remember punch cards.
