GameBanshee has published an interview with D&D creator, Gary Gygax. The conversation briefly covers his history and current projects but here's a computer-related snip:
GB: Do you feel that videogames based on rulesets like Dungeons & Dragons, Vampire: The Masquerade, or your own Lejendary Adventure help or hinder the sale of the pen n' paper versions of such RPGs?

Gary: I think if anything they marginally help. If those were the only games available on the computer than I would tell you they are hindering sales. But I don’t think people are playing computer games all the time and not paper games. So they are certainly not hindering.

Paper games are fighting against computers in general for time, reading is not too popular these days, and attention spans are short. You gotta pretty much figure its not going to be a rapidly growing hobby.
