1 ____Today we see a computer as something that we sitToday we see a computer as something that we sit

down at a desk to use. We see it as a machine with a monitor,

keyboard and a case. The computers of tomorrow won’t be

4 on top of desks, and they most likely won’t have a monitor,

keyboard and case. But most interestingly of all, we may stop

thinking of computers simply as machines. As the future

7 comes, the definition of a computer will rapidly change. The

computer itself, will disappear. Watches, microwaves, and

even doors will be computers. They will have the ability to

10 be controlled from anywhere in the house. Any display that

is. We will be able to set the VCR to tape our favorite show

by selecting the VCR from the display in the

13 bathroom. Monitors will hang around the house on

walls. They will be used for TV, for the Internet and to

control everything in the house. They will be used for all our

16 shopping, and for all of our phone calls. Internet, TV, VCR,

stereo, and telephone, all will be combined in one. One

server in each house will control everything. Any display will

19 allow the user to surf the net, watch a TV program or make

a phone call. In the future, there will be just one

network. Houses will be connected by the fastest means

22 possible, whether by satellite, cable lines or fiber optic

cables. Through this connection will travel everything.
