Computers WORK, people THINK.
Control over computing belongs with users.
Electronic aids, particularly domestic computers, will help the inner migration, the opting out of reality. Reality is no longer going to be the stuff out there, but the stuff inside your head. It's going to be commercial and nasty at the same time.

I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.
I don't think there's anything unique about human intellience. All the neurons in the brain that make up perceptions and emotions operate in a binary fashion.

I really don't care that I don't have what's current because whatever is at the moment, it will be infinitely better in a few months and even better months later.
