Haim, well may be. I know people who argue that a cheaper or better computer contributes to productivity, or standard of living not more than a cheaper or better TV set. There is a culture here on SI that computers are something special. But they are just as special as radio was 50 years ago, or TV was 30 years ago. Just a product that was new very recently. And just as they pumped mainframes in 1960s, and promissed that they will take care of everything, now they pump PCs.
