“The machine had not been changed from its default passcode “

I started in IT in 1995 (my first pc was 33mhz with 8 meg of ram, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry that i’m so old).
anyhow, pc’s where so strange to most of the user base (users, we called them), they were afraid of them.
we would set up default passwords as “password”. six months later when you came by , their password was still “password”.
