We review software and hardware of micro-computers in the light of requirements for the production of robust software. We consider that attitudes about such production on large scale computers which have been developed over the last fifteen years should be adhered to, and that user protection from inadequate software is most important. The typical computer user will tend more and more to consider computational ingredients made available to him to be "black boxes", and will be prone to rely on results in the same manner as he relies on arithmetic componentry to perform correct operations.
