This guy just didn't know how to do it right. It's way easier than he makes it sound. I'm on my compuer a good part of the day when I'm not in class...I can shop with Webvan, get news from /. and NY Times, talk to people with ICQ/IM, contact people with e-mail, and some of my class lectures are even stored as RealPlayer movies on the class webpage.
