Wihtout 'em there would be no flashkit:eek:
I use to work for UK's royal mail, and believe me there is more mail sent now then ever(mainly junk mail, bulk printed crap), so computers haven't ready saved tree's, but you could look at it like this, computers have encouraged the use of people to take a computer to form a letter, print it and send, as more people now use mail as they can hide there handrighting behind a computer printer...
also most e-mails are just general chat used because ppl not having to personnally have to speak to someone over the phone.
so no I think very little of computers saving trees, more that its encouraged the use of printed letters.
but agree with Flasher, that is one good point ,lol
It saved my marriage. Praise the lord!:D :doughnut:

Ouch!
I agree, most e-mails would have taken place on the phone instead. There are other ways that it has helped though. For instance, one of my textbooks this semester in all online, which is good :). But I may have to print it out actually learn anything, which is bad :(.Quote:
