Wobo,

   A study in Korea a few years back found that as a group Baby Boomers
(the post WWII born) tend to be the most confounded by technology.  The
childeren of Baby Boomers and the parents of Baby Boomers are the most
proficient because they aren't afraid of doing something wrong.  They
know that in the end a re-install or a reset will fix everything. 
Nothing really breaks.
