Ah yes. Me being a youngun, I have no grasp of how varied the interweb is, I just assume almost all 40+ers are like my parents.. technologically incompetent.

But if you give it one moment of thought you will come to the realization that we (the 40+ers) invented the technology, the web and PC gaming. So not only are some of us technically capable, but also living proof that "once a true gamer, always a true gamer".

There are a couple of us on this forum who have been gaming since the first week, if not the first day, of the home computer. The first PC game I played came on a cassette, identical to the cassettes used for stereos. I will always remember the thrill I got when something I did triggered the cassette drive, because it always meant that I did something right. It was another year or two before the 5" floppy came out. And I was in my early 30's at this time.
