Perhaps it is due to the fact that that a lot of people using computers until 
recently began late. And when I say late, I don't mean 100 :-). I've seen 
people of 40 acting with their computer as if it was a mysterious machine. 
Perhaps due to the science fiction book of the 70's showing the computer as a 
full power thing. A lot of young now have touched their first computer the 
same time they learned to read and write. And their number will be 
increasing. I think they will be far less afraid with computers than the 
older generation.
