From his bed in Highgate, London, industrial consultant Rex Mallik has the world at his fingertips - he can get the latest stock prices or follow market trends even before he puts his slippers on.


Rex is the lucky owner of a home computer terminal, and while he is still figuring out the best way to use it, his four-year old son has enthusiastically embraced the new technology. One day, it's thought, we might all have a computer terminal in our homes.
