abstract:The Computer Nut (1984) is a children's novel written by Betsy Byars. Kate Morrison, the title character, is receiving messages on her computer purportedly from an extraterrestrial, BB-9, who claims he can monitor and control all computers on Earth.
Intel plans to crack that nut this week in time for the annual Computer Electronics Show in Las Vegas with its new family of Core 2011 processors (previously code-named Sandy Bridge).
