An interesting article about a man who works for a PC magazine who is asked by his boss to not use a PC for 20 days.

pretty much when i went to scotland, i spent about a month without a computer.

It's very nice, and a very vindicating feeling. I can kind-of describe it as he does: The experience allows us to demote the importance of the PC from our everyday lives from "central" to "sub-central."

When i started using a computer again, it was a bit awkward at first. I must also say, the fact that typing is incredibly faster is also a plus. Although, if he can do 3 pages in about 45 minutes, he has yet to meet me (My record for a school paper was 6 pages in 45 minutes on Why Pirates are Better than Ninjas)

That's an interesting experiment. I may do that over the course of the break...but alas, my cousin gave me Call of Duty 2...and that would definitely require playing.

I should go to that Video-gamers Anonymous thingy. It would be good for me.
