Some economist, I think it was Robert Reich, suggested that asking someone whether they worked with computer in the late 90s was like asking if someone worked with electricity in the 1920s. It had become the norm.

Our industrial designer / product engineer now has three printers in his workshop. It's allowed him to rapid prototype new products and some upgrades to our existing products. Very cool stuff indeed!
