I'm of the opinion that the ubiquity of computers has done virtually nothing to improve computer literacy. Most of the people I meet use a computer much like any other appliance that they would find in their home or at the office. It does not take 18 years of intensive self-training and certainly does not take 24/7 access to the Internet to impart those skills.
