Please see my previous reply about the difference between news articles and opinion pieces.

97 is the number of computers the US prosecution alleged that Gary McKinnon _hacked_. Individually, at different times. 73,000 is the number of computers the US prosecution alleged that Gary McKinnon _accessed_, through those 97 computers.

Again, as I said before, whether you chose to believe those allegations is entirely up to you.
