A typical PC with a GHZ clock could read segments of a computer
program into memory and execute and wipe that memory in microseconds.
17 USC § 101
A work is “fixed” in a tangible medium of expression when its
embodiment in a copy or phonorecord, by or under the authority
of the author, is sufficiently permanent or stable to permit it
to be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated for a
period of more than transitory duration.
