Removable media [Bernouli cartridges] made sense to me as IS manager
of Omega Corp. in the mid 1980s, and it still makes sense to me in
any business where the ratio of computers to computer users is less
than one-to-one.
Removable media makes it possible for users to share a computer but
maintain total control of access to their individual documents, data
files, etc. Yes today's computers support user sign-in and file
access protection; but physically separating the computer from your
personal files provides a higher level of security, me thinks.
