Even the old can surf the net. And they do. In droves, apparently. Surveys have shown it and it is beyond many people's comprehension.

In fact the amount of "silver surfers" are akin to those in the 3rd decade of life.

And, why not?

And they have the disposable income to purchase. And purchase they do. It all goes to support what has been a mini revolution - and a revelation.

No longer can we view the older generation as a bunch of fuddy duddies who have little respect for the modern way. Traditionally, the view was that gadgetry was beyond them - or so we thought. But in reality, gadgetry is not so much beyond them as, well, selected intelligently. Selected for a purpose, not just because it is there.
