said by jc100: Pick 90 percent of people over the age of 40 and ask them questions regarding computers. Most would have a hard time answering anything beyond the routine (checking email, browsing, etc). I'm sure this even applies to the younger crowd too who could care less about internet, beyond myspace.
HEY! Im 46! So i guess im in the 10% :P I think Americans are smarter then the media gives us credit. What I dont like is we are flooded with so much advertising that stretches the truth so far that as a whole we are used to it.
