As the American led forces assemble in
Saudi Arabia for the largest military operation since Normandy,
computer chip designer Todd Griffith discovers a secret function
buried within the Kali computer chip. That night, he is shot as he lies
in his bed.
Computers can play chess as well as any
grandmaster. They can diagnose cancer as well as any oncologist,
find oil as well as any seismologist. But can they do that
most human of all activities: can they tell a story?
Read Cheap Complex Devices and find out.
