    If by "careers working with computers" you mean doing more than just using them, i.e. writing software etc then I'm not surprised. Every major business that I can think of relies more on telephones and plumbing but relatively few people need to make a career out of them.

    For most of us computers are just a tool that help us get on with our job, and like most tools they are rarely a career in themselves.
