It's interesting to see that in all three polls, after the 30 mark, the number decreases significantly. Why is that?


I think that is mostly because you would have had to have been an early adopter to get in before that age. 30+ is BBSs, modems...no real internet at that point.


It isn't that after 30 it drops off, its that people under 30 grew up with computing as part of mainstream culture, so you have an explosion of professionals.
