The New York Times had a humorous article about the conference. "The machines perform what seem religious rites... Even as the believers gather, the painters in the Coliseum sign room are adding to the pantheon, carefully lettering 'VISICALC' in giant black on yellow. All hail VISICALC!" (Gasp) New York Times: "All hail VISICALC."
The New York Times sacó un artículo humorístico sobre la conferencia. "Las máquinas realizan algo semejante a ritos religiosos... Conforme los creyentes se congregan, los pintores en la sala Coliseo aportan al panteón, ponen" VISICALC "minuciosamente en gigante negro sobre amarillo. ¡Loas a VISICALC!" (Con sorpresa) New York Times: ¡Loas a VISICALC! "
