Which in practice seriously means that software patents describe the von Neumann architecture and talk about how the RAM and CPU communicate, when it's actually about a high level software solution. It's also always called a "System and method for XYZ", implying the system is part of the invention. Really look up some patents freely available online, they all do this which is plain ridiculous.
