Huh, I would count #35 as a yes, fwiw. They may not be built into the wall, but from the perspective of someone from 1964, today’s large flat panel TVs are basically wall screens.

And #50 as a no. High school students learn to operate computers, but the vast majority do not learn binary or programming.

I would argue learning how to operate a computer does constitute computer _fundamentals_. Programming is more advanced.
A matter of how one interprets the original, I guess?

> All the high-school students will be taught the fundamentals of computer technology will become proficient in binary arithmetic and will be trained to perfection in the use of the computer languages that will have developed out of those like the contemporary "Fortran".
