This image, supposedly from Popular Mechanics magazine, allegedly shows a 1954 scientists' impression of how home computers might look in 2004. In fact, it's a doctored picture of a submarine control room, submitted as part of an image modification contest and then circulated in an Internet hoax. The hoax fooled more than a few IT gurus, including Lotus founder Mitch Kapor, and Chief Executive of Sun Microsystems, Scott McNealy. Whoops. |
