Don't Be Afraid of Computers

Danny has just received a computer as a gift and is intimidated by what he perceives to be an enormously complex and alien piece of machinery. Falling into a deep sleep, Danny is visited by his computer who proceeds to explain why he shouldn't be afraid of computers. Starting with identifying the similarities between a typewriter and a computer keyboard and stressing that a computer is nothing more than an information processing machine that combines, sorts, and rearranges numbers, the program quickly dispells much of the mystery surrounding this increasingly important part of our lives. By speaking in simple terms, we are made to understand that the computer is basically dumb until it receives direction from a human operator.
