I recently heard someone say, “I don’t own a computer. I’m just not one of those types of people.”

When something is new, "those types of people" are the innovators. They are at the leading edge doing what no one else is doing.

At some point along the Rogers adoption curve, the innovators and early adopters are joined by many others, and "those types of people" become the majority. Then, they're no longer those types of people; they becomes us.

So for the person who was proud to not have a [desktop] computer – I think the more appropriate phrase would have been, “I don’t own a computer. I’m one of those types of people.”

We can live happily outside of the majority, but we should probably understand on which fringe of the curve we reside.
