[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]George Masnick, of behalf of Harvard puts Generation X in the time frame of 1965 to 1984, Millennials in the time frame of 1986- 2004, and Boomers in the time frame of 1945-1964.

I know lots of people born in the early 80s prefer to identify as millennial, and "generations" has become a part of all areas of popular culture..

How old are you and how do you identify?

This is fine with me. Younger Gen X will always straddle the analog- digital divide well. We all got our first email accounts, cell phones, internet everything in late high school or college and didn’t have to deal with stupid social media. [/quote]

The way I explained it to my kids is that they get a piece of computer equipment and they can expect it to work. I got my first computer in the late 80s and had to make it work. We'd go to compusa and buy a new computer game and there was a better than 50% chance that we'd never be able to get it working. We'd get a new modem and it would take hours to get everything up and running. [/quote]
