"We" are in a wonderful state of blissful ignorance arising from a complacent assumption that computers are like refrigerators... you put stuff in them and take stuff out forever, without the need for maintenance or concern... Sometimes things spoil in both machines. The difference? We know it's our own fault when something spoils in the refrigerator but when something goes wrong in a PC, we blame the computer instead of ourselves.
