What would happen to you when you are waiting for that one word out of your baby’s mouth and the baby says “COMP” instead of either “MOMMY” or “PAPA”? It might really become true since the computer technology has become very much part of every one’s life. There is so much of information that is available on the internet that the users of internet have to decide whether to use this information for good or bad. So, even though it has revolutionized our lives, we should be careful when using the internet and know how to use it well.
You might have seen robots that are responding to your command instructions or robots that do manufacturing work or hazardous chemical component mixing, etc… This way the computers combined with mechanics have changed the way we work, way we fear, way we communicate, way we commute, and many other factors of our lives. If the progress made in the past 50 years is so much, then I cannot imagine what will happen in the next 50 years.
In the early days of computer invention, the size of the computer was enormous. Yet, the computational capability was limited. Now, we get miniature computers and laptops with their accessories like DVD-write enabled drives, embedded camera, Bluetooth mouse, water-proof laptops bags that exemplify the progress made over these 5 decades. Laptop is a cool piece of computer technology which is compact, and portable.
There is a stiff competition between laptops and mobile phones. And each of these smart devices are encroaching the other’s domain. Soon, we will not be able to distinguish between a laptop and a mobile device. The laptops are shrinking in size and becoming more like mobile devices with cutting-edge wireless access technologies and the mobile devices are including a lot of new applications and features to mimic a laptop. It is a fascinating prospect for the end consumer, isn’t it?
