Alomex: The article you cite, aside from offering no evidence whatsoever of a positive link between computers and productivity, is seven years old and predates the internet's commercial growth period. At best, it deals with IT spending in an era of mainframe technology. What is striking about this debate is the complete absence of empirical support for the positive impact that you say is so obvious. The critics of the productivity paradox just say "oh ya, well prove there is no improvement" without offering any proof that there is an improvement -- if there is an improvement shouldn't it be possible to measure and report? I would not agree that this tired old article debunks anything.
