Computers spoil your eyes, computers are bad for your nerves, com­puters — this computers — that! Don V believe it! Why don't people criti­cize guns that kill much more people? "That's life", you'll say. Yes, but how can you blame such a wonderful thing like a computer, when you can't even use it properly? All evils imputed to computers are the results of our inexperience.

How can you blame computers for spoiling your eyes if you play Doom clones for hours? How can a computer be bad for your nerves if you cry out, "Damn, stupid piece of..." (you know what) every time it hangs be­cause of your being not too smart to tell it what you want to be done.

Come on, lighten up, computer is just a piece of hardware and software mixed. And if you don't know or can't decide how to make this explosive cocktail, ask yourself just one question: "Who is more stupid of you two?" Of course, I'm not a computer maniac beating everyone blaming an innocent machine. But there's one little thing people can't or don't want to understand: computers are not able to realize ideas you don't have and undertake the projects you haven 't mentioned. They are just tools in your hands. And the results of using them are the results of your being patient to tell that old "Buddy Wiener" in a really simple binary way: "Come on boy, do it!" Computers are of metal and plastic but if you don't scare them by your aggression, they do what should be done.
