If the computer had never been invented

[Yoda Power]

What would you do right now if the computer had never been invented.

I would do my homework.

Tough question. I'm a Computer Engineer. I guess I'd have to start inventing it. My current job is more electrical engineering, but requires the use of 6 computers. Basically I'd be SOL and would probably take up my father's occupation: farming/teaching.

 

[Jeratain]

One of the many thousands of manual labor jobs that computers helped to make obsolete.

Or a better job - damned if I know

I wouldn't know, I do everything on the computer, I do all my assignments on it (my handwriting is so bad I have special permission to bring my laptop in for essay tests.) I work for an internet company. I spend a lot of my free time using it.

Well if it neer existed I'd probobly study calculus instead of just having my Ti-89 do it for me

What level of electronic technology would be available?

 

[Archbob]

I would be more fit, my life would be of higher quality. Technology has destroyed me!

 

[CornMaster]

I would be coaching figure skating...which is what I plan to be doing in 2 years. If computers wern't around, I wouldn't have chased the goal of working in the computer field.

True...I used to play a lot of chess before the PC became popular and switched to computer games.
