Everything has a disadvantage even the most useful ones..

It is definitely true that everything has a bad side or negative side of it. The computers that you mentioned is actually very useful and beneficial to mankind. However, people tend to misuse such technology which eventually causes negative effects on their personal health and social lives. I guess people should always take into consideration both the good and bad of anything they do so that they can minimize the disadvantages or negative effects on them.

Addiction is a disadvantage, that's right, but not the computer itself as you explained. Computer and Internet helps us in many ways already known. There was a time, I also was addicted to it. But the addiction, in my opinion, is a problem of selfcontrol. It's up to each to handle its use and your personal time. You have to put the limits and the rules when, how long and for what you will use it. Remember the othere importants things you have to do during a day so you can etablish your time how many do you want to invest in each.

I agree about that, and know that computers have a lot of disadvantages. I know of a lot of people who have been bullied through the internet, and this means that it can put people under a lot of stress. One of the things also is that people are spending more time on their computer and less time exercising, which means that they are becoming more overweight and unhealthy. This is a huge issue in the world at the moment, and something really does have to be done about it or something bad is going to happen.

Yes! Everything in life has pros and cons.. Especially with the new techical boom that we are going through there seems to be more and more that we "need" because of the convencence.. Its just like the cell phone in the last 5 to 7 years everyone was starting to use them.. Now if you do not have one it is usually because the phone got cut off or some other reason.. Most people would be lost without it.. from their contact information, day planner, GPS, and many more features.. Using the Internet can be a useful tool or a way for people to waste their time; going from one extreme to another. Like all things in life everything is good in moderation.. Being on the internet to do research, check email, chat with friends, or keep track of your finances as a few of examples.. Keeping track of the amount of time that you spend on the computer or setting time limits for yourself, can keep you from being one of those people that never get off the computer.. On every waking moment.. Been there a couple times through out the years..

At least realizing that it has a disadvantage would surely make you realize to balance your time in you using it. For work, research and simply entertainment, and hopefully you would learn to manage spending time for other activities physically without the computer.

i agree on you about that. computers now a days are part of our lives. not only for the students but for all, including the professionals. today, different models and styles of computers are present. computers have advantages and disadvantages for the students. the advantages of it is that, students can have easy access to Internet. they can do researching for their assignments and projects. they can use the computers when they need to submit a report. typewriter today are already faced out. computers were used when they need to type a report. also, computers have disadvantages. some people were addicted to it. they are wasting their time in front of the computer doing nonsense like just playing games.
