Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember ever seeing computers in the wizarding world? Wouldn't it be fun if Luna brought this marvelous new magic object to Hogwarts?
Well, lady, I must say-- You're my kinda stupid.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Magic could probably substitute for most uses of the computer.
Now I'm imagining a Google curse. You'd say, "Googleus bike!" and then the victim would compulsively start listing facts and uses for bikes.

All is well that ends in pizza.
If my calculations are correct, the final chapter takes place in 2017.
If they have decided to rethink the whole muggle aparthied, perhaps computers are already in Hogworts...

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Am I wrong to have wanted to see Dudley escorting a kid to his first year at Hogwarts in the epilouge, with a comment about how miserable it's making his parents.

Art Crawl!!!
Aww, Victor, that would have been too cool.
Except I'd want Grandma Petunia to be excited for the little one.

Not wrong at all. I posted something similar upthread:
I think it would have been kind of interesting to see Dudley’s son/daughter get on the train to Hogwarts at the end.
And, now that I think about it, it should be a daughter named Petunia, which would bring us full circle with the original Petunia wanting to got to Hogwarts when Lily did.

Is this where I admit that I never noticed they were both named after flowers until DH?
