From what I recall seeing as a kid, and when working in my teens, that wasn't too unlikely.
There were a lot of women in computing, of various pre-Yahoo-IPO eras.
I think the relative numbers diminished dramatically with the dotcom gold rush, and the newer bro cultures, and gatekeeping.
Only in recent years have we started seeing more women in "tech" again.
