I'm 50. Feel about 30 most of the time.

Where are all of the youngsters? Actually, in most of these polls I've seen most of the Linux users are concentrated between 30 and 60.

I had to do a reinstall of the dreaded "Windows" last night which made me fell about 95!!!!!!!!

A very good question. Seems though I've only come across 2 other under 21s during my time in this forum.

43... and that number will tick over in a little over 5 weeks 8)

Still play a little sport, which may account for my lack of beer gut... not for lack of trying :lol: . I have a physical job too, that may help.

Good advice ol' davec51 for MU!

I think most of them are too busy gaming... Linux will catch up... and most of them haven't as many bad window$ experiences as the rest of us. OTOH, my young bloke is 11, he uses Puppy only on the net because... "Dad, this is fast, Vista is crap"... his words.

I didn't realize that I'm one of the younger members, just turned 32 in Feb. I had thought the ages were more like 11-35, how enlightening to learn the truth.

41 or 10-1/4 I can never remember which! So I am both old and young!

Hey, a good friend of mine just retired when he hit 16-1/4.

Me? I'm older than dirt, but younger than dinosaur doo doo.

I turned 21 last month.

I began using Puppy when I was 16. Seems like eons ago.

Staggering... the average age of those old foggies who are responding is around 50! Less than 3% of Puppy users under 20 years old. It is an aging population, who will soon be reading the obituary pages instead of the Puppy Linux forum... No wonder so many of them want Puppy to come with a bit of Bling! No wonder there are so many arguments; it is perhaps the crisis effect of "very late" middle age on men (primarily). As Caneri's big brother, I speak with experience (not that we are actually related...) :-)
