Are you saying that only 5% of TV residents use computers. I disagree strongly. I don't know anyone who doesn't use a computer, even if they don't own one. Thousands who use Ipads, Iphones, netbooks, all internet connected. All the clubs and TV college classes communicate by internet.
I would estimate that about 95% or more of TVers use the internet regularly. I bet there are more computers than golf carts!!
As for getting along without it, I suppose you could get along without a telephone. You could certainly get along without a television. But few do.
