不要把这类系统认作是个人电脑网络，它们的终端机很可能是一些手掌般的手机，其智能程度远远超过如今最先进的台式计算机。

Don't think of these as PC networks. The terminals would just as likely be cell phones of palm-like devices, each one far smarter than today's heftiest desktops.

终端机也已经可以通过几根简单的串行线或者更复杂的多点系统，在短距离内与大型计算机或微型计算机连接。

Terminals could also be hooked up to mainframe and minicomputers over relatively short distances with simple serial lines or with more complex multidrop systems.

黑客们一般设计针对微软“视窗”操作系统(Windows)的病毒；这并不是因为这些黑客们讨厌个人电脑，而只是世界上个人计算机终端机用户的数量是最大的。

Hackers generally design viruses that infect systems running on Windows; it's not because they hate PCs, it's because there are more PC users.
