What's all this newfangled content being posted as old? My first computer had Windows 3.11 that you booted to from a command prompt. It was an amazing graphical upgrade from the command line computers. Now you could actually see what you were doing on the screen instead of typing commands and hoping a document would print with your data.

Before that, I used Apple IIe computers at school, with their solidly green command line interface. I remember being taught how to program instructions with those computers. You had a "turtle" (green triangle) that you needed to move to a specific spot on the screen, and you typed in commands to make him move.

Whatever content is in this meme, it all released long after I grew up and became an adult. You young whippersnappers.

Millennials are now "old" by internet standards, so Gen X and older are positively ancient.

I'm an elder Millennial, and I remember when we got old enough to use the 386 machines at school. Before that we were using DOS.

Our first home computer was bought second hand and didn't even have a hard drive, just two 5.25" floppy drives, and also ran DOS. We'd have kids from the entire neighborhood visit to play games on it, because although it was second hand it was also very rare to have one.

I was 12 when Windows 95 came out. All this stuff looks waay newer than that. I'd say this draws the line for old at the older part of Gen Z. Millennials aren't even on the scale.

The oldest Millennials are 44 now, and the term is still sometimes used to mean "young people." But only by older people.
