Thanks to the development of modern technology, the idea of an electronic house is no longer
ridiculous. It will be possible to have a house run electronically by computer technology in the near
future. Lights can be turned on and off on a regular schedule. Old and sick people can be taken care of
at home by computers. Many modern machines contain computer chips, allowing their users to program
them. For example, a microwave oven can be "instructed" to cook a certain dish. The housework will
be done by the dishwasher, the washing machine and dryer, and so on. Most entertainment equipment
will operate with computer technology, too. Some examples are radios, television sets, CD player, etc.
These equipment can be set up to electronically go to certain channels or stations, or record specific
programs at certain times. Indeed, cars can be started automatically so that on cold winter mornings
people can get into a warm vehicle to drive to work. In short, computers will be widely used from
operating the household equipment to entertaining people.
