» The laptop love triangle. "There are many people who want a partner close, but not too close. So snuggling up next to them with the computer is for many of us the ideal situation for a feeling of contact but an assurance there won’t be eye-to-eye intimacy. The problem is not computers. Two generations ago people did it with the television." David Schnarch, director of the Marriage and Family Health Center, in Evergreen, Colorado.
