I must disagree.  Putting phone messages for people in the same office
into the computer is extremely useful.  My secretary mails mine to me,
so that I can review them either from home that evening or from
another site connected to the network.

This in turn raises a question.  If I have an elegant work station at
the office with graphics and icons, etc., how do I read my electronic
mail from home on a cheap, slow terminal (probably 300 baud at best)?
Do I have to learn a whole different command language?  Computerese
instead of pointing devices?
