Pretty much. When most people still are afraid to use a computer beyond the basics, they rely on companies or techie friends for their information. 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.
ORLY?

I know some 60 year olds that know more about the internet than some so-called experts.

You love generalizations, don't you?
