#2656It is important to note that probably no large operating system using current
design technology can withstand a determined and well-coordinated attack,

-- B. Hebbard, "A Penetration Analysis of the Michigan Terminal System",
Operating Systems Review, Vol. 14, No. 1, June 1980, pp. 7-20
#2657A right is not what someone gives you; it's what no one can take from you.

rate as computers and over the same period: how much cheaper and more efficient
would the current models be? If you have not already heard the analogy, the

-- Christopher Evans

#2665Get hold of portable property. -- Charles Dickens, "Great Expectations"
