Little Johnny and the Wizard of OS: The PC User as a Fool Hero

Dariusz Jemielniak

Chapter 7 in Organizational Olympians, 2008, pp 80-91 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don’t. This pun has made a career as a status message in IMs, emails, forum signature notes, and on a T-Shirt in a ThinkGeek.com online store. It has been indexed by Google half a million times. Still, it is only one of millions of similar jokes that deprecate those who are not adept at technology and mathematics.
