If the computer had never been invented, how much harder would your life be? Think of your work life, social life, and everything in between.

We might actually have lives ^o^
The computer, no matter how useful and wonderful it is, has sucked us into a virtual world.
No turning back now!

That's hard to decide. Like Tex says, computers are used to design so much nowadays. So, going forward from the 1970's when computers were pretty rare, before the microprocessor, we had long distance direct-dial telephones, colour TV, colour film cameras, movies, VCRs I think, cassete tape recorders, multitrack studio recording for the Beatles, fax machines, photocopiers and a few communications satellites. So it's not like the dark ages. Some stuff now is cheap because it's produced in computer-run factories, other stuff is cheap because it's outsourced. So I'm not sure if cars would be much more expensive or about the same., They probably would not have ABS, which relies on digital sensors and calculation. It depends a bit on your defintion of "computer". That word used to be used for guys sitting at a desk adding up figures, while things like adding machines and slide rules might be considered a form of computation machine.

I'd be awfully hungry, I reckon, as computers were my career...
