to use that quote from bill goodland are the general public not tech enough to understand technology and its terms recent research has shown that the public dont understand terms such as mp3 and bluetooth

more then 1,500 people took part from the uk china us japan in the survey

only 3% of them understand what mp3 or bluetooth meant

even using the term mhz which describes computer 'clock' speeds meant nothing as most did not understand what it meant

so here comes my question to you all speaking from a personal point of view im excellent with technology knowing whats going on in the tech world in computing so i know what im talking about i understand the termanology etc

but what about you lot out there do you understand all or some of the technologys available how technology can be of benifit to you also how could it be simplified by the manafactures of certain lesure products ?
