It's not your age man. It's the fact that technology trips over itself for the SAKE of itself, and that's great for the engineers and hobbyists, but when it comes to end users getting real VALUE from technology, that's a problem.
I'm 37 and I understand technology just fine. But now that bigger things are in my life than building a new gaming rig or downloading shareware all night, I want what technology can do for me to be front-and-center, not technology itself.
The landscape is changing in this direction more and more, as I see it.
Good post.
