I love this picture on so many levels.

For starters, the amount of care that the artist made in getting the machines and other computing paraphernalia correct.

But also because it encapsulates the promise that computers had in the 1970s. The sheer optimism that computers could really change the world in a positive way.

I still think they can. I refuse to believe that we've corrupted computing beyond that optimistic phase.

@craigmaloney I.... want to believe... but I've lost my hope.

@Greg Also, I told @saganfan that you'd lost lope and she replied "We're fucked".

So please hold on to your hope or we're truly doomed. :)
