Two things: number crunching and communication.
I am in charge of two number intensive aspects of my husband's business - billing and accounting. Before I had a computer to do this, it took a lot of time, calculator tapping and paper shuffling. Now, it takes comparitively little time and the numbers can even automatically be fed into the 'other' functions. I still spend a lot of time doing this, but it is less time than before.
I love the communication aspect of a computer / internet connection combo. Forums, research, e-mail, instant messaging, voice communication - all of those are wonderful adjuncts to my world. (Although there is one downside: I get writer's cramp now if I try to write anything lengthy in longhand nowadays.)
