Because they DON'T WANT INMATES to have computers. The opportunities for fraud, stalking, harassment and so forth are endless. Good god, no email.

Computer != internet access.
Also how is giving them email =fraud stalking and harassment?

It would be trivial to control who they could send to and receive email from.

If an inmate created a letter on a computer it would also make it easy to review before mailing it out.

I can't think of any legitimate reason to not use computers for all there paper work.

I can tell you exactly why they continue to use typewriters, watch this 2 minute video and you'll understand also.

That was a great video.
