Hot take:
I don't really get why computers had such high adoption? Like, without the internet (which has arguably completely nerfed computers as a stand alone thing) I don't really see how computers benefit the vast majority of people.
Like, unless you need large relational databases, or to do immense number crunching, stand alone things did just about everything better and cheaper.
So I really don't get why anyone but specialists and nerds bothered?
