Steam (software)

Wikipedia

This is an excellent example of where Software is at now. This should be an easy read if you are into this kind of thing.

I have a nephew that was really into gaming. He went to parties every night, taking his portable disk with him. This got him a job with a company that made gaming software. He did fulfillment for them: taking money from customers, and sending them the app they just purchased. Routine work, that required no thinking.

But he did not take the next step up and learn to program, that would have paid him much more. His mother gets his laptops when he is through with them when they are almost obsolete.

They are both on the edge of the Computer economy, the biggest economy there is.
