However, there are plenty of anal twits like you who have nothing
better to do than nitpick every single thing they see on usenet.

I don't think it has anything to do with being able to afford a
computer. I have two different elderly Aunts that refuse to get a
computer but cruise all the time. While there is a smaller percentage
today of people that don't own computers but do still travel, they are
most likely the Seniors that don't want to mess with something "new" in
their lives.

You can have a printer without a computer. HP has a printer that does
not require a PC.

Or a computer without a printer. I know people who have computers but
no printer.

In a few years most people won't have a computer or a printer. Most
people will have a smartphone or an iPad like tablet device. Only
professionals will have computers. Documents don't need to be printed.
They can be virtual, stored in the cloud, and viewed on a smartphone or
an iPad like tablet device.

Probably in twenty years the only people with computers will be some of
the future seniors who don't want to mess with anything new. The young
people will be using thin clients connected to the cloud.

At the airport, I was in line for security. When asked for his ticket
and a photo ID, the man in front of me produced his "ticket", it was on
his cell phone. I can clearly see what you described happening, and
very soon.

Then they probably won't be reading usenet...

It isn't necessary to read usenet in order to go cruising. Lots of
people cruise that neither read usenet nor have computers and
printers.

And it isn't just old people. My mother was 96 when she died and she
had an active on-line life and had a printer and a fax in addition to
several computers. My husband, who used to run a computer room with
several mainframe and mini computers and was a printer repairman has
only an old computer and printer and no on-line access. So if he
wants something printed, from on-line, I have to do it for him.
