No, they'll stay exactly the same. Or, change for a little bit and  
then revert to how they were before.

Sigh.

Actually, the continual questioning of whether every child should be  
able to use a computer seems weird to me. Like asking them to share  
pens and pencils and then lock them away when they weren't in  
"official writing time".
