Are you computer savvy or just know enough to get by?

When I was younger I was fairly computer savvy. Now though there are so many new techonologies that I have no need to keep up with. My cell phone is basic and my computer is basic. Some of my friends know so much about computers and new things coming out everyday it makes my head spin. Granted, im not completely clueless and can troubleshoot certain problems that arise, but only from experience and having someone come over here and show me how to do it in the first place. No I do not go out and buy the newest thing available. I am constantly amazed at the gadgets they have been coming up with and even a little scared of it. I think if they can do that now what are they gonna be doing 5 years from now, and what do they have that we don't know about (lol a little paranoid I guess).

i am not a computer savvy as well, though i have studied 1 year as Computer Science my knowledge and know how in computers in all field still require more wisdom. i can operate computers, install softwares, hardwares and diagnose PC problems a little. when internet and networking is concerned i admit that i am the type of no read no write to that matter, i tend to ask for a friends help or a technician to fix the problem.

I've been using computes since 1984, but there are a lot of things (recent technology) that I'm absolutely clueless about. I don't have the interest, nor the ambition to get all the latest and greatest gadgets to learn about them and use them. I'm happy with what I have. If something that looks useful for work or for home piques my interest, then I'll reconsider.

I am about middle of the road I guess. I know a little about them, but I would certainly like to learn more. I really want to learn how to build them and fix them and stuff, but I can't afford to go back to school to take the classes...

Oh, I am completely technically challenged!!! LMAO, I know very sad, and I have known more about computers than my hubby and sometmes he will do something on there and I will be like....oh how did you do that?...LOL I surprise myself really when I get through things on the computer, like I did a survey today and it told me to enable cookies, sure sounds easy, and I managed, but at first I was like, oh no..not going to be able to do this...LOL so I know enough to get by...

I'm not that computer savvy nor does have a technical knowledge that is so deep. I have friends who are programmers, and they really are good at the technical side. As for me, I just know how to use the internet, just the basic knowledge. But then again it's nice if everyone can increase their knowledge in computers. I believe there are also tutorials from the internet that we can learn from. Thanks for the question, tjades!

Dear friend, I am not a computer savy but I would like to know more about the new technology and use it if it really helps me. Moreover I would like to have to have knowledge of better of technology.

Im really not that savvy with computers. But i think i know enough to get it to do what i want it to do and i think that is enough for me. I think im much more knowledgeable with it as compared to other people in my workplace but im not a genius at it. When it comes to gadgets i try my best to stay updated with the latest ones just to be aware is enough and i dont really need to buy it to be updated. Well, im not that savvy but i think i could operate things and figure out how gadgets work without the need to read the whole manual, and i think thats also the same with other people. Its just like you have this initiative on what buttons to press to make that gadget work.

Hi there, Well, it's rather hard to type with these paws of mine. However, I consider myself to be quite computer savvy! There's not a lot I haven't torn up so I know how to fix quite a bit. I've never paid for computer help or tech support. I've been computers for over 2 decades. So, yes, there's been tricks I've picked up along the way. Thanks for a great topic! meow & ciao! !^..^!

i am also not a computer savvy.but in todays time its a must to know about computers.everywhere computers are being used nowdays so its important to know atleast the basics of computer.so i am good with the basics but if it gets realted to go in more depth i back off.i am interested in latest mobiles and love to know about the latest moblies but i donot go crazy for it as i also have friends who go crazy for all these gadgets.

I guess i'm pretty tech savvy ....very updated to the new technologies But during the process ,at no point does the knowledge in this field seems to be enough because it seems to be growing at the speed of light but surely posses enough knowledge to get by...

I wouldn´t say that I am a computer expert but I definately know enough to get by. I, like many people these days have grown up with computers, using them on a daily basis, chatting, shopping, emailing etc etc. I imagine that in the future they will make further advances and I will be left behind. I would like to learn more about the workings of computers, possibly computing programming etc. I would love to invest in all of the latest gadgets but I don´t have enough many, maybe mylot can help me out with that, hehe, Good luck and happy Mylotting!

I am not skilled to the computer , the goal I study the computer is to use it . I just need to master the basic computer knowledge , does not need to be skilled in . Because I thought that many people are using computer processing many business now . Infact , From mine angle , understood more computer knowledge is a good thing to a person.
