Well, I am 54.  I have worked at the same Volvo / Oldsmobile Dealer 
since 1973.  Made Oldsmobile Master tech for 14 years in a row. Many 
of those I was in the top 100.  In 94 I became the service manager and 
still there.  We bought our first Coco2 in 1982 for our Daughter and 
son.  We bought in October as a Christmas present.  Every night I 
pulled it out and every night I got more and more addicted to it. 
Bought the Cassette deck, later on the printer and after that came the 
first drive.. By the time big day came it was quite a setup.  Now the 
collection is really getting out of hand, but I have a very 
understanding wife. She is right about it keeps me out of the bars and 
coming home at 2:00AM barking like a dog and howling at Moon :-)
