Although there are disadvantages to using a computer, we believe the advantages greatly outweigh the disadvantages (although we may be biased). Below is a list of the main advantages and benefits you'll get and society gets from using a computer.
Increase your productivity
Computers increase your productivity and, with a good understanding of the software running on them, you become more productive at everything you do. For example, once you have a basic understanding of using a word processor, you can create, store, edit, share, and print documents and letters. Each of these things was either impossible or slower with all pre-existing technologies.
Connects you to the Internet
Connecting a computer to the Internet is what unlocks the full potential of a computer. Once connected, your choices and available options are almost limitless. Many of the benefits listed on this page are with a computer connected to the Internet.
Can make you money?
