On August 12,1981, IBM announced their new PC. How do you think computers have possibly helped our lives? How do you think computers have possibly harmed our lives? What do you think future computer will do differently? (Use kindle)

I think computers have helped our lives by making jobs easier. For example their functions help us work faster in offices and making accounts. The computer was made just for that to make our lives easier. Computers can now be found everywhere, and have become part of our lives. Now mostly computers are needed for everyday uses, no matter if it's work or school.

Computers might have harmed our lives as well. Computers took away many jobs, which left many people without money to raise their families. Computers scared society back then, many thought they were going to take over. Computers caused many financial problems, some could afford it and others can't. Others didn't even want to own a computer.

Future computers will kindle our lives, by making lives much easier. There will be new programs and models that will become of interest. Soon every home will own a computer although it seems like that already. Computers are what make this world go round.
