The increased popularity of computing, the adoption of multi-byte encoding and the computational and storage power available today increase the usage of computers in humanistic studies: now a linguistics scholar can afford a system to do linguistic research say, on Ottoman turkish (arabic writing - btw ancient Greek students already had TeX (if they knew they had it ;) ).
