Computers have not only simplified our lives in very incredible ways, but have equally complicated things as well. Running a modern business, for example, would be a foolish undertaking without a computer system of some kind. The computer can easily handle the tasks of inventory control, payroll, bookkeeping, and other accounting tasks.
The auto parts industry uses computers to look up parts for customers. The computer can store an incredible amount of information & access it very quickly to find the specific information that is needed.
This is a lot easier than the alternative, which is to look up the parts in a paper catalog & hand write a receipt for the customer. This is a big advantage to businesses, the speed alone can help you find information in seconds instead of hours doing it the old fashioned way.
The downside to the great speed & versatility is this. Computers suck ass! That's right, they are stupid horrible pieces of crap that deserve to be thrown into a landfill & buried underground & eaten by worms.
Except for Macintosh.
