[Peter T.]

My paper for a sociology of science and technology course quotes Kling on 
this I like his chapter on this.

R. Kling, Reading "All About" computerization, in ed. Arge, P. E., & 
Schuler, D., Reinventing Technology, Rediscovering Community: critical 
explorations of computing as a social practice (Greenwich, CT: Ablex 
Publishing Corporation, 1997) at 20.

What do you mean I am a dummy? I read about computers. A preliminary look at 
the semiotics of the computer 'How to' press.
