I apologize for the tastelessness, (although in fact not only computers, but
humans are affected also as I tried to explain), I used this term as a terse
form of what I wanted to say.

As it seems, our opinions are not that different, I just have a more radical
"pro-computer" position so far (although I'm not much deeper involved into this,
than any average fan).
