What Should One Know to be Truly Computer Literate?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday May 23, 2006 @01:55PM from the where's-the-on-switch dept.

rbannon asks: "Computer literacy is becoming an increasingly used term in education, and more and more schools are being asked to set computer literacy goals for their students. Unfortunately for too many, it means being able to use Microsoft products, and that's all. However, I see it much differently, and I cannot help but think that computer literacy is all about using computers to be able to communicate more effectively. With that in mind does anyone have any recommendations for computer literacy goals, and how to measure them?"

I've based my carrear around Linux/Open Source and I get tons of calls if I fish my resume out there.
