On this information age, people are very dependent on their computers and laptops or other gadgets to share their ideas, connect people through social networking sites and some streaming videos or movies through YouTube and other listen to latest songs. What if computers will be gone?

I would probably welcome that day. I hate it when children and adults are glued to their computers the whole day playing, chatting, or surfing. It seems like there is nothing more important in their life than these.
Of course, industries will be very affected without computers. It would slow things down, as well as communication, research, media, etc. Many people may be sad or angry, but I think they will have a better life in the future. I enjoyed my years back in the 60's and 70's - we knew and played with our neighbors, we had a safe community, less crimes, less buildings, greener city. If we can go back to that state, I will be very happy.

If all the computers will be gone, one day, then there would be a one whole chaotic day. All transactions and computations will be done manually to be able to finish them. People will be late for their work or in school. News will be delayed for one day. And this one day, some group of people will try to restore a computer or find ways so that this one-day event will not happen again. That is, if the question is just for one day.

It would destroy the world we live in completely. Every aspect is completely ingrained with computers these days.
Would it be a bad thing? ... I think for a while it would be, but a step back to simpler times and simpler ways may just be what would benefit this world.
Think of it, our grandparents survived just fine without them. These days we are completely lost if we are not able to get online or utilize them in some manner. As a whole computers are making us weaker, not stronger....dumber, not smarter, ....and dependent rather than independent.

This is the question what my english teacher asked me. What if one day computer will be gone? So I taught, what? Can you repeat the question. I think it's impossible - because science is always renewing - so how can just computers be gone someday?
Well in the other hand, if it going to happen someday. Then we just have to live healthier and thats it.

That is not a nice image at all. I mean, I use it every day, so... Let's say I'd have a plethora of free time, all of sudden. I don't want that happening, not again. I can totally remember the last power outage when I was without virtually any connection to the outer world. It sucked, really.
But I guess I'd have to spend more time with people in real, which I'm trying to anyway but fail, because I live like super far away from them (I commute every day, but you still need some time to yourself and your family at home).
Luckily it's not going to happen :)

Then many people will lose a job since there are many fields that needs to rely on computer. For example being a graphic artist. They need to have computer if not then they can't graphic artist but a painter.
