Comment For a generation we've wrung our hands and wondered why so few women have taken up careers in technology.

Could it be, as Harvard President Lawrence Summers publicly mused 15 years ago, that women just don't have the brains for such analytic tasks? (That gaffe cost Summers his job.) Or perhaps those hobbyist "microcomputers", exclusively advertised to boys (and manchildren), cut women out of the fun?
