Computer fix? Does it mean "a difficult situation involving computer"?

"Computer Fix" is one of the chapters of An Appetite for Wonder by Richard Dawkins, which I am about to read.
But what does "computer fix" mean? At first sight I guess it to be "computer repair", then I checked out my dictionary, which gives the definition - a difficult situation (informal usage).
What do you think when your eyes touch "computer fix" at first sight? Do you understand it at once?

@oristarA,
Without knowing more, Oris, I would probably take it to mean "a solution provided by a computer."

Good guess.
Let's see what others will offer, so that I will transfer the ribbon to the better answer.
