I've heard that, but since I'm computer illiterate I don't know how it all works. But since I'm on Prodigy tonight, I'm learning a lot through my typist, Peter.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Computers rather frighten me, because I never did learn to type, so the whole thing seems extraordinarily complicated to me.
Here's where I luck out: I'm really computer illiterate.
Computers allow us to squeeze the most out of everything, whether it's Google looking up things, so I guess that tends to make us a little lazy about reading books and doing things the hard way to understand how those things work.
Every time I learn a new thing to do on my computer, I have to write it down so that I can remember it.
I was the fastest typist in my school, and I had an obsession with spelling and memorizing.
I often write in pencil on paper and then type up later. It's much quicker than using a keyboard.
Computers absolutely changed my life. Before I had a computer, I had never written one thing. Not one thing. I'm a very bad speller and I was embarrassed by that. When I would type, the little mistakes would make me nutty, and I would never edit anything.
I'm not a big gadget guy. When I write, I'll do the whole thing by hand, and then I'll put it into the computer.
I type everything on my computer. I carry a writer's notebook everywhere, in case I am struck by an idea. I forget things unless I write them down. I'm planning to learn how to dictate into my cellphone; I think that will be very helpful, too.
I've been using a computer for quite some time, and I don't understand everything.
