About this Quote

This quote by Adam Osborne talks to the idea of developing computers that are so user-friendly and easy to use that they end up being an important part of daily life. He is recommending that the future of computing depend on creating and offering computers that are so effortlessly integrated into our lives that we don't even recognize they are computer systems. This might mean producing computers that are so small and unobtrusive that they are almost undetectable, or computer systems that are so instinctive that they can anticipate our needs and respond to our commands without us even having to think about it. By developing computer systems that are so perfectly incorporated into our lives, we can make them an integral part of our daily regimens and activities. This might change the way we connect with technology and make computing more available and easy to use for everybody.
