There have been many columns in the computer press about computer phobia. I
can't tell you which magazine or issue, but I can tell you an easy way to
search for these articles. Ziff-Davis Publishing produces a CD with articles
from many computer magazines and tabloids called, "Computer Select". Your
Systems group may subscribe to this service or your local library. The CD
has a good set of search tools, so you should be able to find the articles
you need quickly.
