Default Pocket PC Demographic: Age

I'm curious as to the age ranges represented by the subset of Pocket PC owners that are on this board... Feel free to not post "My name is <name> and I am years old!" like we're in kindergarten, but by answering the poll you can satisfy my curiousity without me knowing which age belongs to whom...

I won't answer the poll first, because that would be too obvious.

What age do you consider fogey?

"Old" vs. "Young" is a very relative term - it depends on who you're talking to, who's around, etc. I try to hang out as much as possible with people older than me so I feel young.

I'm going to a rock concert on Thursday where they'll be playing some songs that are older than I am. But I have a hard time when I see people's birthdates that are post REM's "Green". "What do you mean "Stand" was written before you were born???"

I'm in one of the age groups that isn't old enough to have fond memories of bell bottoms from the first time around, but isn't young enough to think that "flared leg" jeans are hip and cool. It certainly makes shopping for jeans a challenge these days.

Don't feel old. No matter how old you are, there's just about always someone older.

I will guess that you're in the 41-46 range, since if you were younger I don't know that you'd remember the Apollo missions... Certainly nothing wrong with that.

Plus - you're cool enough that you listen to music I do (), and because you're older than me, you got to go to concerts that I wasn't able to.

Wrong, good guess though...

Apollo did go through '72. So try again (I was very young, but I do still remember)...

And sorry, but you're cool cause you listen to MY music, not the other way around... :wink:

Heh. The hazards of age-guessing. I'd have to revise you one category younger then. 36-41.

As for me - I'm 26-30. I guess I'm not quite sure what "my" music is... I think I just like other people's.
