True!
For those interested, the PRELIMINARY DRAFT of the CMU
report can be found:
http://homenet.andrew.cmu.edu/progress/
Click on Research Reports.
It is interesting reading (25 pages). The mainstream media did
not report the skewed sampling (no computer/I-Net experience),
families who had kids in HS involved with journalism, very small
sample base, depicting MUDs as places to socialize, using Macs,
it goes on and on. Anyone who puts any credence to this report
has not been on the Net for more than an nanosecond.
