QuoteThe study involved 2,392 men and women, all of whom were 18 years of age or older.

This actually might explain a bit, people in their 20s may not know some of the older terms as they have become irrelevant.  Who cares what a motherboard is these days - heck who cares about computers anymore?

But not knowing what software is?  That seems very odd.

When you get snarky, generally best to know what you are talking about.

Why are you blaming people in their 20s?
All I have to go on is over 18 which would suggest to me it's more likely than not that they're older

That wasn't snarky, that was a just a statement;  snarky would've had "dumbass" tagged on it.

Now excuse me, I have to catalog my 3 1/2" 2MB diskettes, thank you.
