#96699 - I think this is closer to the truth
Responding to: ???'s previous message
ably enocuraged by the CS departments at their University. What do we need to know about the hardware

I think this is closer to the truth:
"ably enocuraged by CS department instructors at their university who can not be bothered with knowing about the hardware"

Just came to think of a real classic: At a cellphone maker in the software dept the following happened:
Joe: we need to improve battery life.
Bill: I have a neat C++ algorithm for power save mode entry.
Joe: but we run only C, do not have the processing power for C++.
Bill: just increase the clock speed.
