Operating systems are more complicated than ever, so it would be impossible for most people to be savvy about things that don't apply to their day to day role (not to mention a waste of their time learning things that they almost certainly would never have to know, and a lot of which would be rendered useless by the frequent updates to Windows). What's more Windows and the computer world in general seems to be have been pushing the consumer to be more reliant on Microsoft, Google etc. to let them do everything, control everything. I am less confident and able now than I was when I first got an IBM compatible in the early 2000s (I had owned a couple of Commodore Amiga computers in the 1990s as well as using IBM style PC at school, so was already computer savvy). I used to be comfortable installing mods for games and so forth on my computer, but things like Steam and Windows from 8 onwards took these things out of my hands (Windows 8 even made it hard for me to make changes to files in game folders on my own computer...).

lol duuuude... It must have been around 1995 or so. My dad, who was a software developer at the time, had purchased a new computer: a pentium 75! This bad boy had a 4x cd-rom, 8 colossal MB of RAM, and wait for it...a freaking _GIGABYTE_ of hard drive space. I remember inquiring about the video card because the one we used in our family computer was an ISA card (it didn't even have a PCI slot lol, it was a 486 33mhz) and I loved playing Doom in "hi res" mode, but it was so slow and laggy on the family computer, I was curious how the new computer would handle it. My dad told me that the video was on board, so it was basically just as fast as a PCI card and I think it had a 1 MB allocation of video memory. Not only did Doom play faster, it could even handle it in hi res mode without an issue! And it even had sound instead of the PC speaker sound I was accustomed to with the family computer!! The plasma rifle was my favorite sound for a long time. I could go on and on with stories like this lol

i dunno how old you are you, im 38 but lemme tell ya when i was 7-14 years old my parents were like this. My dad was a computer scientist working in the army space program office, and military intelligence for 22 years in the army, but his first personal computer he bought himself was a pc in 1994-95 and he didnt know how to use it. He had to take computer classes to learn how to use a personal computer.. he knew electronics and satalites in space but didnt know how the new computers worked. My mom was the same thing, in 96 she had a computer its still in storage btw lol. and i remember her on the phone with tech support for 4 hours one night trying to get it to work. Computers back then were not simple like they are are.. Once you get the cords all plugged in just installing stuff on a pc back then through floppy disks was complicated. Windows 95 was new, DOS was the main thing.. and to install stuff you had to go into dos and type commands everything. Like CD:/INSTALL DOOM. then to load it you needed to type in commands.. and thats just for CD's.. imagine doing this on 10 floppy disks.. The commands for things were complicated for new users... If youre in your 20's or younger you dont know how easy you had things, you put in a CD and things install immediatly you grew up with windows xp .. you just select the hard drive to install it. Now adays for teens they just download things online and install them through steam or what not.. computers now dont even have a dvd or cd drive.

MITCHELL WIGGS You say that because you've grown up with a PC but for a lot of people back in the day, using a PC was a massive change and a steep learning curve. Put yourself during that time and I'm sure you'd be struggling too. You don't know pain and torture until you've tried learning to work DOS. Back then there wasn't even a user-friendly user interface. That didn't come until Windows 98. It's all much easier now because of usability.

The closest we had from instant communication was the International and National LADA phone calls from a land line. Calls were terrible quality and extremely expensive! I remember in 1985 after the earthquake in Mexico City, we were unable to communicate to our relatives living there until a few weeks after the event. And I was possible thanks to the "Radiodifusores" People who owned large CB radios with huge antennas on top of their roofs who communicated with other people in other regions as a hobby. (An expensive one!) What is really amazing is that even with all these limitations, we still could fly in about the same amount of time as now, is just that plane tickets were more expensive.

Yep. There's still a lot of tech illiteracy. There's a huge difference between being social media savvy and tech savvy.

and the tech illiteracy is getting larger with the new generation. a lot of kids have just phone and console. no PC or even laptop

I was born in 1990 and i can definitely remember being baffled by a computer in 1995, but my mom was even worse lol

i'm a 90's kid too. i miss the time we had mp3 and cd players 😂

@@QueenNebulous13 was just talking to my wife about using Napster and Aimster back in the day, and all the burned cd’s we used to have to carry around 😂

@@kurtishendrix haha yes! good times

same here. born 1984. These videos dont feel at all like how it felt then

she wouldnt know how to plug it in

She die of frustration and anxiety 1 year ago.she was still trying to make the computer work

What if she’s like a twitch streamer and does speed coding for fun. I mean she got into computers before most of us were even walking.

She did she has a twitter now and is also working as a writer and editor at inquire first

She's been on PC for 26 years I'm sure she's a wizard by now

I agree (*except for the "borned" part). I think we have a lot of 20-somethings on here assuming 90's tech was just as self-sufficient as it is now. It was not.

mine appears to have this burning fox powering my browser.

gotta give credit where credit is due, its not the computer scientists you have to thank for that, it's the electrical engineers (well, the ARM architecture also helps a little)

the ece engineers. not computer scientist. CS are mainly on softwares. not hardwares
