First of all not everyone has a computer or access to a computer, for those who do they can only imagine the power that the internet holds. This power can enhance your knowledge in so many ways, all you have to do is apply your self and your time. The internet can take you to so many places with just a few keyboard strikes. Education is out there in the internet world, all you have to do is seek it. My question is how can we get this Education to those who can't afford a computer?


One good way for those who don't have computers that can get access to the internet is public institutions like libraries. School is also a good place to get access to a computer. Some neighborhoods have community centers that has computer access as well. Computers have been made so affordable that there are so computers you can rent or finance with little payments. I think one of the phenomenon of the internet is that they turn computers from a luxury device into a life's necessity so it is easier to own or get access to.
