I'll never type that old outdated e-mail again. We take the telephone for granted because we have one in almost every room in our homes. We have portable and mobile telephones. Everyone and everything is at our finger tips. Oh sure you can order a pizza on your computer, but it is still easier to order it on a phone.
Phones are still the most important device in our home or office.
Computers a distant second. Forget about trying to log on to your ISP, while at the same time trying to save someone's life. Hoping your e-mail gets there. All your modem does is convert your data to travel by telephone. With out the telephone, computers would be useless in an emergency.
