The Internet is
not a Graphics Thing.
The Internet is not a Computer Thing.
The Internet is a Communications
Thing.
A computer is a tool.
Whether it is a tool to communicate, a tool to calculate or a tool
to play depends on your own choice.
Computers and the Internet
are going to be an even bigger part of your life. As computers get
smaller and smarter, they are not going to look like the
computers you are used to:
They will be tiny, like a pen.
Setup will be simple and no
wires needed...
Simple and easy to use.
One "pen" becomes a projector that puts a display image on the
wall,
Another projects a "virtual
keyboard". Typing on the projected images of keys on a flat
surface acts like a keyboard.
This is not fantasy. This
technology exists. Combined with then newest wireless
technology, prepare for computers to be even more available than
they are now.

WASHINGTON –– More than half of all
Americans use the Internet, with more than 2 million people going
online for the first time each month.
And nine out of 10 school-age children now
have access to computers either at home or at school, according to
a Commerce Department report released Tuesday.
"Today's children are tomorrow's
entrepreneurs and innovators," Commerce Secretary Don Evans
said. "That Internet usage is so prominent among them
promises to bring vitality and growth to our economy."

On the Internet, Play
Time is Over.
"The Internet
is luring millions of viewers from their TV sets, cutting into
first class mail, eroding catalog sales, hurting telephone
traffic, menacing newspapers and magazines. Growing at warp speed,
the Internet may well have more effect on the world than the
invention of moveable type. It took 38 years before 50 million
Americans were listening to radio. Television got to that many in
only 14 years. The Internet had 50 million users in four years.
It's estimated that over 120 million are online now with 134
million forecast for next year -- and that's a low-ball
estimate."
