So what is really new here?

We've had software running in all sorts of systems for decades now.

I can remember configuring a DEC Storageworks controller in the early 1990's.

Cisco Routers had config files

etc

etc

etc

So what is really new here? Or is it just a load of marketing hype as usual?

Can someone tell us in terms that even us ignoramuses can understand what this crap is all about?

If they can't can this site please stop promoting a load of shit?
