Why do you think they don't have computers in the MLP universe?

Equestria seems always to use the lowest tech solution to a problem - and if it gives a pony a full time career, then all the better. I would assume that in a lot of cases, if you lift the "hood" you will find magic, not technology, is in use - Vinyl's mixing desk, The pony recording industry that provides it with recordings, and things like Twi's video playback in /the mane attraction/.....

It seems evident pre-computer equipment like tabulators DOES exist - the canterlot library has mechanical catalogue engines, for example - and we have seen videotrons in equestrian cities. So either we haven't seen Equestrian computers because nopony onscreen has needed/wanted one, or there really isn't a need, so they don't exist.

Computers require a power source, and quite powerful ones... You know, like 18 Volts constant DC. You wouldn't want to generate that by hand (hoof). Also they need to be built and tested with great precision. No horse carriage build here
