It's back to the future, with this article by Gregg Keizer from the Atarimagazines.com archives. This one was originally published in Compute!, Issue 134 / October 1991 / Page 18. From the article:
"Walk through the door and shout, "I'm home!" and you may get an answer from the kids, a spouse, and half a dozen, computers. Computers hide all around your house. Touch the membrane panel of your microwave, and you call on a microchip-based controller. Your telephone-answering machine may record calls not on tape, but in silicon memory. That late-model car out in the garage is smarter than some of the kids you went to school with. And your videogame machine does graphics better than most business computers."
