Former colleagues of mine and even several friends who are older than me who didn't even smell a computer until they were in graduate school; didn't see a computer until graduate school: that's like 22-24 years of their lives.

I actually have a friend who is a few years younger than me and this past week is the first time she's used a Windows machine. And not only using it, she is now "a PC"-she totally converted or will convert from Macs to Windows.

My first experience using a Windows machine was when I started college in 1997. Before then, in public school, we had Apple IIs and TRS-80s-gotta love them I spent much of that time cutting my teeth with command-line interfaces. I guess I would be one of the few people in the world that still loves DOS.
