No one could predict the use of keyboards in ‘69? They did have the typwriter, by then, if I remember.
I especially like that someday the internet will be a big in-home micofilm station.

Typewriters have been around since the 19th century, but the mouse was invented in 1963, and there was a general idea (still is) that eventually the keyboard would go away. Remember that in 2001 and Star Trek the computers are all controlled by voice.
This is the second “in the future” short I’ve stumbled across today, and what I find interesting is that they both assumed strong family units with no need for virtual personal space.
