I don't buy this argument either.  Here in the land of
astronomical housing prices, it's quite common for more than one
person to live under the same roof... and I have to try very hard
to think of households-with-computers that only have one!

Last week I watched the videotape of Steve Jobs on his
"interpersonal computing" soapbox.  I think he's right on target
here.  Networking is *the* single most important feature of the
NeXT.
