The truth in no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network will change the way government works.

I bet that he will be wrong all counts, not just the first one.

Replacing a daily newspaper? Laptops weren't meant for that, but look at e-book readers (Kindle is a great example). I can definitely see that replacing books: the screen on that thing is comparable to paper. Replacing teachers? Maybe not school teachers, but in lectures with 100+ people around you, a video of the prof does just fine.

"Yet Nicholas Negroponte, director of the MIT Media Lab, predicts that we'll soon buy books and newspapers straight over the Intenet. Uh, sure."

I don't get it. Does this imply that there was news before the internet? Unsubstantiated hearsay. I don't believe it.
