Cover Quote: June 2019

But even when computers began to enter our everyday lives, our offices, our homes, they still were a bit esoteric. You might use a word processor at your job. Your kids might play computer games in your basement. But you didn’t really need or use a computer in your everyday life. […] The Internet, and especially the World Wide Web, finally brought computers into the mainstream. The Internet is the reason that computers actually became useful for the average person. The Internet is the thing that made a computer something you check in with daily, even hourly.
