There can be no doubt that computers have come to stay!
In a fast shrinking world modern technology is currently
tapping into the immensity of the micro universe as data processing
grows in complexity to accommodate the ever- expanding limits
of Human knowledge. It seems like only yesterday that the Woz
(Steve Wozniak) held everyone in awe with his brainchild, the
PC. But since then the world of computers has come to be part
of everybody's life in some way or another.
Society the world over has become increasingly dependent on
the computer. It has become the polyvalent
and indispensable tool whereby multinational consortiums carry
out their mammoth transactions, international airports monitor
air traffic, and schoolchildren do their homework assignments
and play video games. It is also the eyes and ears of the global
network the Internet has become.
In the early days and due mainly to the lack of knowledge,
a number of people fostered serious reservations about computers,
believing them to take over the world some day thereby making
Man redundant. Today such misconceptions have been largely dissipated
by mass diffusion of information about the computer and its worldwide
usage.
Nonetheless, the average user may be able
to carry out basic operations but not necessarily understand the
logic and technology behind them. As such, we at www.adiaspora.com
aim to provide updated computer related guidelines, info and Internet
links in an effort to make the world of Computers accessible and
comprehensible to the average user. Try us!
