So a more sensible thing it seemed to me was to go to Silicon Valley and be pushing on the technology companies to accelerate the use of audio and music in computers.

If I was designing a web site for elementary school children I might have a much higher percentage of older computers with outdated browsers since keeping up with browser and hardware technology has not traditionally been a strong point of most elementary schools.

In fact technology has been the story of human progress from as long back as we know. In 100 years people will look back on now and say 'That was the Internet Age.' And computers will be seen as a mere ingredient to the Internet Age.

We've lost touch and allowed technology to take precedence over organic nature. But let's not forget that those microchips in our computers came from elements of the earth.

Technology is like water it wants to find its level. So if you hook up your computer to a billion other computers it just makes sense that a tremendous share of the resources you want to use - not only text or media but processing power too - will be located remotely.

We're getting so pulled in by computers and technology and our kids have their face in the computers all day. The human relationship is being diminished by this.

Even when I work with computers with high technology I always try to put in the touch of the hand.

Nanotechnology will let us build computers that are incredibly powerful. We'll have more power in the volume of a sugar cube than exists in the entire world today.

The new information technology... Internet and e-mail... have practically eliminated the physical costs of communications.

I have seen that technology has contributed to improved communication that it's contributed to better health care that it's contributed to better food supplies that it has contributed to all the basic human needs.
