Abstract: 

In the second episode of Halt and Catch Fire, AMC's new show about the birth of personal computing, the protagonist encourages his two recruits--a hardware engineer and a coder--to ignore a recent setback and keep working to build a new kind of PC. "I thought that maybe we could do this precisely because we're all unreasonable people," he tells them, borrowing from George Bernard Shaw. "And progress depends on our changing the world to fit us--not the other way around."
