What's this?

Bang for the buck. I recall a similar discussion involving British naval


experts during the Falklands War. The Exocets that the Argentinians used to blow some destroyers out of the water, cost a hell of a lot less money! They had to keep the carrier Hermes out of range or risk losing her.

But hey, it just isn't sexy having nerds playing with computers, rather than officers longing to be the next Patton. ;)
