[net.misc] State of the Art in CAD for DoD

This appeared in today's Raleigh News and Observer:

     Camarillo, Calif. (AP)

     F-4 Phantom jet-fighter design specifications and sketches stored on
     190,000 computer cards were stolen from a  company ...
     Anyone with the proper equipment could use the stolen cards to produce
     photographic prints show the exact specifications and dimensions
     for the fighter.

My first reaction was that anyone with the *proper* equipment wouldn't
have a card reader, but then it occured to me that perhaps storing things
on cards is a form of security.  *I* certainly wouldn't steal 190,000 cards.
