[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 18266, member: 175144"] If a digital computer can only remember things parrot fashion but not put any sense into that information. then surely going down the route of trying to design something 'better' using the same technology is not as good as starting afresh. I would like to throw more money at 'hair brained' ideas than look at the products of large companies already firmly established in their money pit. I would probably trust a small innovative company with finding 'it' than IBM/Microsoft. Your idea of a difference in 'cleverness' (those that can write sonnets but not those that are able to remember and recall a large chunk of information at will) is strange Jimbo. Cleverness is probably not the right word for the discussion. [/QUOTE]
