<I>Sara has never lived in a world without fast, cheap computers or the Internet. They've always been a part of her life, and she treats them like part of the landscape.</I>

I'm sure I'm going to do this quote great injustice but i can't help but thinking of "Everything new after you're 30 goes against the order of things."

Think of all those things that you took for granted growing up that your parents didn't have. TV? Radio? Electricity? Automobiles? Running Water?

/end rant

My first experience /w computers was pretty cool imho. My mom was a single mother and a grad student, so when she had to spend hours and hours in the computer lab, she would bring me along. I would log in on the terminal next to hers using a 2nd accnt, play MUDs mostly, and mess around with the old punch cards machines. Not a bad experience for an elementary school kid.
