I believe that computers have brought about benefits such as improving work efficiency and also improved information sharing.

Nowadays, computers are essential in every company, as they are required to perform numerous tasks. Office workers such as accountants and engineers use computers daily to carry out their calculations and send e-mails to corresponding parties. Computers have allowed for the improvement of work efficiency as these calculations are now able to be performed within seconds, as compared to years ago when all calculations were done manually.

This shows that everyone around the world is linked by the Internet which is only possible due to the invention of computers.

Although some people claim that computers may bring about negative impacts such as causing us to be less productive, I disagree with that statement.
