Bob Larbey: ‘I’d like a Star Trek transporter’ | Celebrity squares

The Good Life co-writer on why he bought a Mac, and how he had to admit defeat with a chess computer What's your favourite piece of technology, and how has it improved your life? I suppose it's a Mac, which I'm sitting in front of now. I don't know if it's improved my life, but it's made bits of it easier. You can find things out much more quickly now, so it's eased life. When was the last time you used it, and what for? This morning, to look at some train times for a friend of mine. What additional features would you add if you could? None, really – as long as it does what I tell it to do, that's all I want. Do you think it will be obsolete in 10 years' time? Oh God yes, it's probably obsolete now. It's a year old now, so that's an antique by computer standards. What always frustrates you about technology in general? That it's too difficult for me to understand.
