I hate the label too) Since living on my own, I've never had a land line, always had a laptop, and am now considering giving up cable. Please tell me, why do I need 1000 channels again? I can get everything I want on the net for free or cheaper than $90 a month. It saves a ton of money too. I’m “Gen Y” (bleh… I hate the label too)

Hadn't seen that, but it totally jives with my personal experience. What interests me is how we're drawing the lines, though. Does "TV" mean a monitor for displaying broadcast and cable? Is an iPhone a phone or just a really small computer that you can watch "The Office" on? I think what's critical here is not so much what electronics people are buying, but the shift from inactive to interactive. Wow. Hadn’t seen that, but it totally jives with my personal experience.

Forrester has been updating this research every six months to a year, most recently in September 2006 according to the Forrester Research web site.

Gen Y is almost entirely a laptop generation. Plus, computers have been integrated into most of their classrooms since they first hit school. They are also most likely to ALWAYS live in a home w/a PC from cradle to grave. .. it’s also interesting that “Gen Y” ranks the importance of a computer so much higher than “Gen X.” Gen Y is almost entirely a laptop generation.
