Usage

yearthe year
valuethe estimated percentage of households with access to a computer
Details
Data are spotty and regrettably this is not a perfect time-series.
However, it is useful for an in-class exercise to show that the proliferation of
household computers (over time) in the United States comes in part because of
globalization. Use it for that purpose. The data are reasonably faithful, but don't
treat it as gospel. Exact sourcing available upon request.
