Oh, right. Sorry, I forgot, but I just couldn't resist. Although, now
that you pointed it out, and me being a computer science student myself,
there are 3 problems showing up: 1) I agree, it's hardware. But I
planted it there myself, and it works. Why? 2) Can it be proven
(mathematically) that aforementioned switch will function accordingly in
all situations? Can we develop an algorithm for that? Can it be coded in
an object-oriented language? 3) Who cares?
Hey, I think I just found the theme for my doctoral thesis. On the
other hand .....
