Definition of Lobotamy


1. What a hacker subjected to formal management training is
said to have undergone. At IBM and elsewhere this term is
used by both hackers and low-level management; the latter
doubtless intend it as a joke.

2. The act of removing the processor from a microcomputer in
order to replace or upgrade it. Some very cheap clone
systems are sold in "lobotomised" form - everything but the
brain.
