My brother (70) has been threatening for a while to enter the digital age but to date still lacks a computer. What do you need a computer for eh? 'Junior' has a computer but no internet connection, honestly in this day and age! How can anyone live without Google? For instance if you'd been watching a xmas episode of Father Ted and wondered what year it was made. but not having received a Classical education how could you find out what the Roman numerals XCVI mean, without leaving your seat? is it 86 or 96?
This is an example of one of many invaluable services the home computer can provide. Does this mean that General Knowledge may go the same way as mental arithmetic since we've all had pocket calculators? Duh... just a minute there... I'll have to google that one...
