I don't totally agree, about education "enforced"
What you want to realize is kind of :
Hey guys I buy a new car, sit in it, and why this damn f**cked device did drive
me to the destination I've in mind ?
Well, one day it could happen, but I really hope that day we don't use anymore
cars :-)
Do a simple test, take a new digital television, with sat,cables, and internet
access, and give it to someone that just have a
plain old analogic tv. Sure that person will not see any show before a certain
amount of hours of works and reading.
In that case, you ask/paid someone who know to setup that stuff. Why should it
be different with IT things ( computer, tablets,
phones etc ?)
One day this kind of people will remember IT pro exist and bring "great and
valued of" work to make IT things working, perfectly
adapted to their need. Let these pro people earning their money, and payback us
with contributions.
Happy new year to All.
