By default, the magic word to get the attention of the Amazon Echo is
Alexa, although you can adjust it to be either Amazon or Echo. Now, Echo
users will have a new choice, that being the word "computer" as in
"computer, what time is it?" I'm quite sure this was inspired by Star
Trek, where crew members of the Enterprise would begin a sentence with
the word "computer" to get the attention of the ship's computer. This
update may not have arrived just yet but, if it hasn't, it will soon be
available.
