> So your two piddly links trump their two piddly links?
My first link includes more than one ad featuring girls.
They cited two advertisements and interviews with "hundreds" of students trying to recall why their parents bought computers.
If you're going to make the bold claim that computers "were marketed almost entirely to men and boys," then you've got to present some data on the marketing of the time. Especially when there are counter examples to the claim.
Even something like, "here are ten thousand computer ads from the 80s and boys outnumber girls by a significant margin" would work.
