It would take a lot of time and effort (to repair the computers). And they can't run (programs and games) kids are interested in today. They're not even on the Internet. We wouldn't be offering them much of a carrot.
Personally I am not very self-reliant when it comes to internet and computers.
I was in Las Vegas when the Nogueira brothers first touched down in America. There was a bus, this is a true story. There was a bus that pulled up to a red light, and Little Nog tried to feed it a carrot, while Big Nog was petting it. He thought it was a horse. This really happened. He tried to feed a bus a carrot, and now you're telling me this country has computers? I didn't know that.
People are good at intuition, living our lives. What are computers good at? Memory.
We demand privacy, yet we glorify those that break into computers.
I despise computers in many ways. I think they’re hopelessly underevolved and overrated.
Now they can do all these magic things with computers. So you think you get to do something in a movie and you find out you don't get to really do it.
It seems that nearly every week there is a problem where information is leaked or computers hacked. I'm conscious of keeping my details as safe as possible. I might be old but I'm still bright and prefer to go into my local branch and see a face.
Worrying about a large institution, especially when it has computers, is like worrying about a large gorilla, especially when it's on fire.
If you don't know anything about computers, just remember that they are machines that do exactly what you tell them but often surprise you in the result.
Computers don't lie, but liars can compute.
People don't understand computers. Computers are magical boxes that do things. People believe what computers tell them.
When Colin Powell showed up as Secretary of State in 2001, most State Department employees still didn't even have computers on their desks. When I got there they were not mostly permitted to have handheld devices. I mean, so you're thinking how do we operate in this new environment dominated by technology, globalizing forces? We have to change, and I can't expect people to change if I don't try to model it and lead it.
If I had not studied music, there would be no Macintosh computers today.
The one thing computers have done is let us make bigger mistakes. We have to be careful not to depend on our machines.
Supercomputers will achieve one human brain capacity by 2010, and personal computers will do so by about 2020.
I started to explore computers on my own and first used one at the age of 6, when I was in first grade.
Our lives sometimes depend on computers performing as predicted.
I'm seeing too many kids where they get fixated on their own autism. I'd rather have them get fixated that they like programming computers or they like art or they want to sing in the church choir or they want to train dogs, you know, something that they can turn into a career.
When things are digital, they're all 1's and zero's, and so they commingle in ways we didn't anticipate and you could do things that were not like publishing or television, or computers, but were some intersection of those and that got known to be convergence, so between the switching, or trading of places and the convergence, you have today's media.
