尼葛洛庞帝(Negroponte)是被西方媒体称为在电脑和传播科技领域最具影响力的大师之一。在他的《数字化生存》一书中,尼葛洛庞帝指出,当今电脑正在以指数的增长形态,进入我们的日常生活,“目前,35%的美国家庭拥有电脑,而且一半的青少年家里有个人电脑。据估计,3000万人加入了互联网络(Internet);1994年全球卖出的新电脑中,65%进入了家庭;1995年将要卖出的新电脑中,90%将带有调制解调器或光盘驱动器(CD-ROM driver)这些数字还不包括1995年每辆汽车上平均安装的50个微处理器,或是那些在你的烤箱,恒温器,电话应答系统,激光唱机和问候卡中的微处理器。”今天,以电脑或是微电子技术为核心的数字化已经深深影响到了我们每一个人的生活。正如尼葛洛庞帝所指出:“计算不再只和计算机有关,它决定我们的生存。”
