No.

Haha why not?

No and that is probably a result of my upbringing. My parents were always late adopters of technology. As an example, my family used dial up internet until 2010, when we finally got broadband internet.

So because of this, I have never been fussed about having the latest technology around me all the time. When I buy technology (especially big ticket items) I expect its useful life to last a number of years before I need to upgrade it.

For sure!

It’s always exciting to try new things out! I wouldn’t generally consider myself an early adopter though because either the price or quality have not been worked out.
