|
|
A new study indicates that most people spend more time with technology than they do with their family.
The survey found 65 percent of respondents spent more time with a computer than with their spouse or significant other.
Among other findings of the "Cyber Stress" study:
- The average consumer has experienced computer troubles eight times - about every four months - over the last three years.
- The average American is wasting 12 hours per month - the equivalent of half a weekend - due to problems with their home computer.
- A majority of Americans (52%) describe their most recent experience with a computer problem as one of anger, sadness or alienation. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |
