That Does Not Compute

The first mini-computer cost close to $20,000. Today you can get a laptop for less than $400. Does anybody think that those numbers would be even remotely similar if the federal government had been in charge of the industry (and, please, keep in mind here that the projections for Medicare were off by more than 800%)? I sure as hell can't fathom it.

Whirling Dervish, aka Dervish Sanders, aka Lying Lester would certainly be one who could fathom it. Indeed he would quite likely applaud it.
