Overview: Researchers in a large empirical literature find significant relationships between computers and labor productivity, but the estimated size of that relationship varies considerably. The estimates generally do not distinguish between having computers and specific ways of using them. Since computers have been in commercial use in the United States for fifty years, computers might be viewed as just another capital input. In this paper, we estimate the relationships among computers, a specific way of using them - computer networks, and plant-level productivity in U.S. manufacturing. Using new data on computer investment, we develop a sample with the best proxies for computer and non-computer capital that the data allow us to construct.
