Let's compare them.

Imacs: Need electric to run.

Paper: Needs nothing to run. Ink optional.


Imacs: Runs a limited amount of games, Quake 3, Alpha Centuri... multiplayer games are limited.

Paper: Runs many games, battleships, squares, noughts and crosses. Multiplayer games are plentiful.


Imacs: If it breaks down, you'll have to journey across the ends of the earth to find someone who will fix it.

Paper: If the paper tears, you can just get another piece.


Imacs: Are incredibly difficult to make planes out of.

Paper: Can be used to make all sorts of little planes, and also other oragami stuff. Like swans. Or boats.


Imacs: Can be used for word processing, databasing, calculating...

Paper: As can paper.


I'm sure there are more... please, come up with some.

I've found an advantage.

imacs: Can be used to smash over the heads of people who thing they are better than PC's.

Paper: A bit useless as a weapon. Mind you, it could give you a nasty paper cut, and if you spent the same amount of money on paper as you did on an imac, you could easily crush someone with it. You could probably crush continents.
