<p>You mean back in 1939?</p>
<p>My kids can download music and movies…after I (a mom) fix their computers. They can’t google or find a bus schedule or even find the bus stop after I get them the sched…but they sure can find concert tix.</p>
<p>But, this will change. They are getting smarter with each year of college. Btw, I heard our kids do better on the SATs because the tests have evolved. I can’t imagine kids today with the old word analogies.</p>
<p>And, Sk8trmom, *…a rush to push every kid into college. * Hallelujah, someone finally acknowledged the elephant in the room.</p>
<p>Intelligence and common sense should not be confused. </p>
<p>The latter is an learned trait.</p>
<p>Kids know how to use technology. Older folks knew how to drive cars. Both are just technologies with some level of usability.</p>
<p>Ask kids how the technology works and listen to their answer.</p>
<p>It’s magic.</p>
<p>How does a GUI work? Is it just part of the computer or is it a million lines of code?</p>
<p>E.D. Yes - I mean back in 1939. (But I suppose you could add each generation that recalculated it . . . incorrectly - post war and mid-80s)</p>
<p>Fogfof- I never asked for help! I just wanted to see what peoples opinion was about the book, and secondly I am not in college, I start freshman year this fall. Hence why my description says Carleton 2015!</p>
<p>Glido, I don’t think there was even Pong 1.0 back in 1939! :)</p>
