Here We Go Again
Okay. Here we go again. According to this Excite.com article, Compaq and MS are going to “hard code” MSN into new Compaq Presario computers, with ” special keyboard buttons and additional software that will allow users to quickly access the Internet through MSN.”
Great.
Is it just me, or are PC companies getting dumber and dumber? Instead of educating consumers and giving them the possibility of making choices for themselves, they’re going to make it even easier to get on the internet. I’ve got an idea. How about if people who don’t know how to use the internet don’t use it? Or more to the point: How about if people uneducated about the internet and technology get educated about them instead of letting Bill Gates do the thinking for them? And why isn’t anyone encouraging education about these issues?
Oh, wait. I know. Then Compaq, eMachines and Microsoft would stop making money. Right.
