My late father despised computers. But most especially of all, computers in cars.

He said often "A car only needs gas, air and electricity. It doesn't need no stupid computer."

I can only imagine what he would say today...

I get 435 hp out of a mere 5.0 liters and still get 18 mpg (23 if I drive like an mature adult) thanks to a computer. I’ll take my chances with the CIA.

Doesn't really matter what he would say because computers are/will be in everything - appliances, toys, communication devices, homes, cars - you name it. The Internet of Things (IoTs)
