Take the following as truth: Readers who want a more complete picture should read two other  Steven Levy's  Heroes of the Computer Revolution (1984), which gives a still-fresh account of MIT's Project MAC (not coincidentally funded by Licklider), an enterprise dominated by the hacker ethic--the compulsive urge to explore and improve on things.
Then the following statement: "The hacker ethic had little influence on the MIT's Project MAC." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: False
