in thread (OT): 200-year software

I do agree with you but, somethings has not changed with computers, so some knowledge about computers is not obsoleted. One of these things that are not obsolete like imperative programming, in a von Neumann machine. And I do suspect that this is not going to change in the fifty years to come. Or to say it in another way, the details of computing do change alot but the broader picture does not change.
