Interestingly, I think we're seeing less people grow up with general purpose computers, and instead just have an iPad or an android tablet, or a chromebook.

I wonder what things will look in 20 years.

Probably more and more like what this The Verge report finds on how students don't really know what files and folders are:

As things get more and more offloaded to the cloud, local computing is something only developers, engineers, and geeks will properly understand.

At least chromebooks have the capacity to become general purpose computers by installing Linux. But yeah, anyone who doesn't grow up with a Raspberry Pi or the like is gonna have a hard time.
