(FORTUNE Magazine) – ''The entertainment industry . . . will be streamlined by computers . . . ''Bob Hope, who I've worked for, literally has a full-sized, walk-in bank ; vault . . . that contains his joke file. They're all in file cabinets--we're talking thousands and thousands of files. So if he needs to do a routine on Gerald Ford, he can hunt up the Gerald Ford file. But it takes a tremendous amount of manpower to maintain this file and call up items. You could put it all onto a hard disk, and it would be so much simpler.'' --Comedy writer Harvey Berger, quoted in PC magazine.
