your last example isn't valid at all, really
A computer is a meaningless distraction and side-tool for most jobs that just simply happens to be the most convenient method to communicate and produce documents.

Complaining that (for instance) Nakers or I should be more computer litereate is like complaining that your doctor is shit at his job because he doesn't know how to rebuild the gearbox on his Saab.

Why do all architects and doctors drive Saabs?

Because they aren't BMWs, Mercs or Audis.
And they aren't quite seen as the admission of defeat that a Volvo is.

It used to be Audis or Saabs. But now Audis are without a single exception driven by cunts, Mercs and BMWs are out still and Volvos are cooler and Saab is gone. So I guess they all drive Volvos now.

Most of the people I deal with spend 90% or more work time on the PC.
If you spend a lot less than that, then your need is less accordingly, but it would still be a help.

Still not really relevant.
I spend a large proportion of my time in an office. Doesn't mean that I should know how to design or build one.
