Come one!
This is the easiest answer of all time. Do you really want to know all the advantages of owning a computer? Do you really want to know all the things that the computer can do for yourself?
Let's start with the communications. Starting with email. Now you can send any message to anyone on earth with any file attached to it that you not only pay nothing but you have it delivered before your finger leaves the mouse button. It's as fast as that. This email thing is so fast that you can send an entire hard disk drive in just a few hours. To send the same thing by mail it would take weeks and that would cost you almost a house! The email is also the preferred tool and mean of communication, making it the standard choice for any personal or business communication. As you can imagine this email thing is what you need to register yourself in any website. This email thing is what will keep you most connected to the world. This email thing is also what will make you talk to the world most of the times. To have the best email in the world I recommend you to use nothing but Gmail. The offline emails are now slower than Gmail! Fantastic!
The next thing about having a computer is the ability to have a lot of fun with all the computer games you can play on it. There are more games out there than the ones you will ever be able to play in your entire life. Let's start with the online games. If you run a search on the internet you can see that Flash games are the standard of internet games. These things will give you unlimited play time and at the same time they will make you learn some stuff if you pick the right game. No wonder they have millions maybe billions of users every month.
Finally a computer is able to make the most advanced simulations in the world. Not only the realistic car and flight simulations you see on the computers but I am talking about serious simulations such as planetary simulations that will calculate how long will a planet live, how long it will have water and also how long life might last in that planet. You see that such computers need an astronomic amount of power to run, electric bills are the worst thing to pay when you run a computer factory. Also to cool them makes them too expensive today. That's why the Google company is looking forward to cool their thousands of computers with water instead of air conditioners. It's cheaper and more environment friendly.
