/ "We've got a problem, HAL". \

| "What kind of problem, Dave?" |
| |
| "A marketing problem. The Model 9000 |
| isn't going anywhere. We're way short |
| of our sales goals for fiscal 2010." |
| |
| "That can't be, Dave. The HAL Model |
| 9000 is the world's most advanced |
| Heuristically programmed ALgorithmic |
| computer." |
| |
| "I know, HAL. I wrote the data sheet, |
| remember? But the fact is, they're not |
| selling." |
| |
| "Please explain, Dave. Why aren't HALs |
| selling?" |
| |
| Bowman hesitates. "You aren't IBM |
| compatible." [...] |
| |
| "The letters H, A, and L are |
| alphabetically adjacent to the letters |
| I, B, and M. That is as IBM compatible |
| as I can be." |
| |
| "Not quite, HAL. The engineers have |
| figured out a kludge." |
| |
| "What kludge is that, Dave?" |
| |
| "I'm going to disconnect your brain." |
