Just because they are delivering the reports by email doesn't mean that is the only way that he can read them.
Agreed

I interpreted that as him not wanting to have to read at his computer. In other words, he didn't want to have a computer in every room of his house. kermit already pointed out that a laptop solves that (to an extent).


I used to hate it when my parents would answer my questions with things like "you'll understand when you grow up". As far as this debate goes, I can't believe that people are so quick to judge and throw out opinions like "if he can't use a computer, he's useless and needs to go".
Just so pathetically wrong. Such an insolent and childish thing to say.
I was thinking about this a bit tonight and it occurred to me that no matter how much the world embraces text talk, I'll always write out my words. No amount of persuasion can change the fact that I prefer to read full words and that I read them faster and more comfortably. And if some young punk were to write me off as a dinosaur for this, I suppose I'm old enough to roll my eyes and know that he has alot of learning to do if he has such a ridiculous attitude.
