    When personal computers came out in the 1980s. there was really only one way to get information into them - with a 1. Then graphical interfaces came along, and it became important to be able to interact with objects on the screen. The commonest way of doing this is with a 2, but some computers - for example tablet computers, have screens you can write on directly, using a 3. People who use their computers mainly for games will tell you that the most important way of communicating with their computers is with a 4.
    It took almost a decade before computers became powerful enough to accept voice commands, but today we can communicate with out computer with a 5. We can also talk to other computer users, and also see them through a 6. The computer has started to replace the 7 machine, but if you do receive a printed page, you can still put it into your computer with a 8.
    Today, a 9 network or bluetooth will let you communicate with your computer with almost any electronic device, such as a 10 phone.
