A sample survey by Nielsen Media Research looked at computer access and use of the Internet. Whites were significantly more likely than blacks to own a home computer, but the black-white difference in computer access at work was not gincant. The study team then looked separately at the households with at least $40,000 income. The sample contained 1904 white and 140 black households in this class. Here are the sample counts for these households.
