Betty by Gary Delainey and Gerry Rasmussen for April 19, 2013

Considering he didn’t have computers when he was formulating his theory, I’d say Betty’s right.

I don’t let’s ask Stephen Hawking what he thinks

Think what Einstein could have done if he had the use of a computer beginning about age 23.

In my experience, geniuses tend to be really scatterbrained about everyday stuff. They could use those organizational apps most of all! And olddog1, Einstein would have been “working” a computer from about age 5, tweaking it at age 9, and going IPO at age 13.

Einstein spent years working out the math behind some of his theories; having a computer might have freed up years of his life to take his work further.

but Einstein might have found the computer limiting. When you’re thinking about time and space – things can be difficult.
