I think we can all agree that computers make our lives easier. At least, whenever we're not banging on them when they're not working properly. Which is to say, most the time.
Therefore we should really avoid taking them for granted in our everyday lives. I think it's important to take a look at what life was like before computers. For some insight into the past, check out this Fark Photoshop thread on Things That Were Harder Before Computers.

Yeah! Computers are great we all get to be connected to work 24/7 and we get lots of e-mails from people we don't know and no e-mails from the people we actually care about! It is sooooo much fun!
