i think he's doing more of a rant on the fact that computers have been billed as being the devices that allow you to do anything. hell, i've even seen commercials that boast "You will be a better $whatever by using our computerized system."

i guess it's kind of like all the shoe manufacturers selling shoes by making it seem as though their shoe will make you jump higher/run faster/etc... and i can tell you from experience that none of those things happen ;)

I use IBM keyboards at work and home...I absolutely love them... And yes, they are tanks.. The one at work was made in 1988 ... that's an old keyboard... :)

For anyone interested in the IBM keyboards, you can buy them from http://www.pckeyboard.com/

Second on my list of favorite keyboards is Keytronic keyboards...they're pretty decent.

Oh, and don't forget, the IBM keyboards can double as home protection... :)
