Since the days of the Polaroid Camera, the Walkman, Nintendo (or even Atari), and the green screen computer with lighter green text (no idea what this CPU was called), I've been addicted to technology. Growing up, we seems to be keeping up with the Jones' as new technology appeared. We had the video recorder, the new Apple Macintosh, our first cell phone, and all the games systems we had hoped for.
I can probably track my addiction to technology back to early elementary school in the mid 80's when the Oregon Trail burst onto the technology-gaming scene. I was in fourth grade when "The Wizard" with Fred Savage came out in theaters. Needless to say, I was hooked on video games from the time I walked out of the movie.
Growing up I used to listen to all of my parents vinyl records on the player which somehow made it into my room. The first CD I ever owned was the Beatles Anthology who I had become crazy about after listening to all of my Mom's Beatles records. Over the years I have been a lucky owner of Walkman's, Discman's, and 3 different generations of IPODS.
I consider myself an Apple user but due to lack of funds when my last Macbook broke, I was forced to buy a PC. I have a IPhone which I use almost every minute.
Overall, I have been very lucky to own and use so much technology as I have grown up. I can't wait for the next big thing (not the IPad, its just not that cool).
