What if...? (3)

What if the computer was never invented? This thing has changed the way thousands of things operate. Just think about all the things that are run on computers now. Working in an Insurance Agency, everything is in the computer now. You fill everything out online and then it prints it out in a nice handy form and then the customer signs it. It used to be done by hand. You filled out the form on the carbon copy pages and then that was the Evidence of Insurance. Now it's all computerized, and it's a nightmare when the computer is acting up. When you think about it, it seems like we have all gotten lazy, but really it's just the way things are done now and since it goes so much quicker with computers, it takes ages to get anything done by hand. Not only is insurance done with computers, but banking is done with computers. You definitely don't want there to be a mistake with banking. All these things obviously worked before, but it seems that we have become more advanced with the things we do because of computers. But, someone had to think of how to put that formula into the computer and it spit out that number, which is awesome on their part, because I probably wouldn't have been able to do it. Even college would not be as advanced as it is today. Most all of your classes have some online connection. Without that, we wouldn't have things like email, online grading, paperless homework, blogs, etc. ;P. But, the internet helps students do research quickly and efficiently. You can go online and ask a question and immediately get an answer. It is wonderful. So if the computer was never invented where would we be today? Who knows, but I am thankful that we have it. =]
