It's the eventual revenge of the IT departments. Long ago, back in the stone age days of the 70's, those pocket protected terminally geeky men and women ruled the corporate information kingdom, with their secret languages of COBOL and FORTRAN, giving access to computer time like MacArthur Foundation grants . . .

Then personal computers running VisiCalc, Wordstar and later, Lotus 1-2-3 started appearing on desktops, purchased by rebel workers breaking away from the IT empire, until the day of liberation finally arrived.

But now, the Empire has struck back . . . we're all slaves to the corporate IT stormtroopers again . . .
