　　Computer Addiction

　　2

　　It is 3 A.M..

　　3

　　Everything on the university campus seems ghostlike in the quiet,

　　4

　　misty darkness —

　　5

　　everything except the computer center.

　　6

　　Here, twenty students sit transfixed at their consoles,

　　7

　　tapping away on the terminal keys.

　　8

　　With eyes glued to the video screen,

　　9

　　they tap on for hours.

　　10

　　For the rest of the world,

　　11

　　it might be the middle of the night,

　　12

　　but here time does not exist.

　　13

　　This is a world unto itself.

　　14

　　These young computer “hackers” are pursuing a kind of compulsion,

　　15

　　a drive so consuming it overshadows nearly every other part of their lives

　　16

　　and forms the focal point of their existence.

　　17

　　They are compulsive computer programmers.

　　18

　　Some of these students have been at the console for thirty hours or more

　　19

　　without a break for meals or sleep.

　　20

　　Some have fallen asleep on sofas and lounge chairs in the computer center,

　　21

　　trying to catch a few winks

　　22

　　but loathe to get too far away from their beloved machines.

　　23

　　Most of these students don’t have to be at the computer center

　　24

　　in the middle of the night.

　　25

　　They aren’t working on assignments.

　　26

　　They are there because they want to be —

　　27

　　they are irresistibly drawn there.

　　28

　　And they are not alone.

　　29

　　There are hackers at computer centers all across the country.

　　30

　　In their extreme form, they focus on nothing else.

　　31

　　They flunk out of school and lose contact with friends;

　　32

　　they might have difficulty finding jobs,

　　33

　　choosing instead to wander from one computer center to another.

　　34

　　They may even forgo personal hygiene.

　　35

　　“I remember one hacker.

　　36

　　We literally had to carry him off his chair to feed him and put him to sleep.

　　37

　　We really feared for his health,”

　　38

　　says a computer science professor at MIT.

　　39

　　Computer science teachers are now more aware of the implications

　　40

　　of this hacker phenomenon

　　41

　　and are on the lookout for potential hackers

　　42

　　and cases of computer addiction that are already severe.

　　43

　　They know that the case of the hackers

　　44

　　is not just the story of one person’s relationship with a machine.

　　45

　　It is the story of a society’s relationship

　　46

　　to the so-called thinking machines.
