So much for still expecting virii and worms to be carried on floppies adequately etched "Doom" or "Prince", or something like that. I guess history has successfully shown that some of these overpaid analysts aren't always right. Who knew that Sir Frank Whittle superior(s) at the RAF back in the late 1920's/early 1930's would tell him that the jet engine was a preposterous idea, and that it would NEVER fly?
