Agreed.  I believe that a well-designed and competently-managed computer
system can be made effectively invulnerable to viruses, and I think that
attempts to do this are soon going to become a major selling point here
in the 20th century.  Surely by the 57th century the need for suitable
defensive measures will be taken for granted.

Heartily agreed.  We have had more than enough upheaval already.  If
GDW really wants to proceed with this Star Viking stuff, I would be
much happier if they set it in a completely different game universe
rather than twisting our beloved Traveller universe to fit it.
