Comparing computer illiteracy with analphabetism seems a little exagerated. I remember seeing this same divide between geeks and people who couldn't care less ten years ago. And about the quote: "The kids I have, and that is roughly two dozen of the brightest young digital artists a semester, often have no idea what Microsoft Word is. They can't tell a Mac from a PC. And forget Excel," he says. He struggles to get his students to use basic computing etiquette." Maybe they should raise the bar for entrants to this course... really. update: how can those students be the brightest digital artists if they can't even tell if they are working on a Mac or PC?
