Well I guess those days are along gone. Recently I sold my house and moved to a condo, temporarily that is, for a while the only Internet connection that I had was the close by Starbucks Café. Well it has been kinda hard – and I mean hard! I used to have two Internet connection: One was a fast Cable running at 20Mb/s Down and 2.2Mb/s up capped at 100MB/m and the other was a DSL connection running at 10Mb/s down and 1.0Mb/s up with unlimited download. Seems I took both of them for granted. Coming off of a system like this to nothing is a true Cyber Shock. Yes it is. You will exhibit withdrawal symptoms – you feel left out – you feel that you have lost something and you keep looking for it. No – no, don’t get me wrong; most of us are using PCs (Mac and Windows) every day. But how many of us would use a computer without an Internet connection. I remember, a longtime ago, we use PCs of all kinds without an Internet connection. At some point, when Internet started getting popular, a lot of people refused getting Internet and they argued as to the real need for such a contraption.Are the ‘Stand Alone’ Personal computers Dead?Consider it!OK, so we have established that we are too dependent on Internet. Another question is this: Do we use all the Application that we have on our machines much less now so we can make time ‘to’ be on the web and use WebApps? Does this mean that Internet had devalued other applications that most of us paid good money for it? IF that is the case, then I have to declare that Internet had failed miserably in replacing all those applications that we have on our machines.
