You're probably right. 

For number nerds:
mean   - 28.4
median   - 28.5
std.dev   - 6.3

I don't think the one who voted 50+ is serious, but what do I know.
I don't know... I think it was Victor Ireland.

24, I figured you guys would be my age and older, because we are the only ones who remember when games didnt suck ass and "Polygons" were not the sign of a great game.  And remember when we were kids and they had toy guns that looked like real uzzis and stuff?  Now look at what kids have, flourescent green and pink guns, I tell you its a generation of wimps forming.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

All about polygons? Nobody talks of polygons anymore. People did that in 1995. A horrible gaming era. The time of great games is just getting started.

This millenia isn't so bad.  We have TG-16 forums!!  In 1992 there were only mythical 'bulletin boards.'  You were pimp with your 14.4 modem.  Cell phones were for Neurologist and Coke Dealers, and all the cool kids had pagers.

What the f*ck was email in 1992?!?!  But oh, back in 92, I could throw a football a quater mile.  How much you want to bet I could throw stevek or nat a football from here??

Back in 1992 or so, i think i was using the 33mhz 386, or it could have been the 486 DX4 100mhz which i acquired sometime around DOOM or DOOM 2's release..

I sported a 2800 baud modem for a while, then moved to either a 14K or 28k modem sometime with the 486. Not to mention that kick-ass 4X CD-Rom.

Believe it or not, I actually had an Internet e-mail address in 1992. It was ridiculously long. I remember often times the messages I would be sending were shorter than the address itself:

nat.hall@bytewarrior.altcit.eskimo.com

That was before the WWW, but I spent a lot of time on UseNet forums and Gopher. Gopher was the shit before the WWW hit the scene.

I ran a dial-up electronic BBS ("Bulletin Board") service in the mid-90's, too.

But oh, back in 92, I could throw a football a quater mile.  How much you want to bet I could throw stevek or nat a football from here??

I couldn't throw a football particularly well, but they'd always handoff or pass to me because I could outrun everyone and score a touchdown. I set the Track & Field school records that year for 50 and 75 yard dash. You know, that was 15 years ago, now that I'm thinking about it I should go back and see if anyone's broken them. I wonder if they would even release that information to me or if I'd get an escort off the school property.

Selly, you never gave your age.  Although I still don't know if you are a man or a woman.  Are you even human? :-k

Keranu, I seriously thought you were older than 19!  Add 10 years to that and you got my age.
