Older than 9/11, but not by enough to remember much more than the stories about going balls to the walls on acting assimilated to the country I was living in so we wouldn't stand out as Americans because the consulate was worried some locals might try taking hostages to support the terrorists.
My first modem was 2400 baud.
Younger than the iphone 👶

I'm barely able to remember watching Star Wars in the summertime in the theatre.
The first news broadcast I can remember the subject of is Tom Brokaw talking about a bombing in Bosnia... because I liked the alliteration.
I still call them Opel Fruits
Vic-20, Atari 600 XL, zx-81.
In that order

I was at this concert:
First video card upgrade was a 3dfx voodoo 2
I still shoot film and I still have a record player.
First smart phone was an iPhone 5S.

First computer only had a teletype, no screen. Oh and paper tape memory.
