atw: Re: Should we give the users what they want?

Not even a tiny bit Tony, you obviously haven't comprehended much of what
I've been saying.

Haven't notice anyone trying to entice me into buying software or a new
frock on this thread lately.  Perhaps it will happen.

Who, pray tell, are these dazzling "futurists"?  I expect to be around for
at least another many decades of the future.

I've already made the point that the youth use trite apps, they're not
actually using any technology that we didn't already have, while everyone -
including "old" people - use the technology.
