this has confused me for a while. what age groups currently define generation x, the generation before that (whatever that might be), and generation y? i'm 18, and always though i was in generation x, but i'm not sure. anybody know?

It's more simple than that. If someone says "Beck" and you think "Jeff Beck", you're a grown-up. If you think instead of that woefully untalented "musician" who currently uses the name "Beck", you're not a grown-up.

Have you heard his latest album Sea Changes? No, probably not you've just heard the ones from the radio. Loser, Devil's Haircut etc..

But to get back on topic; from what I understand the "X-Generation" was actually the early 90's teens. So those in the 26-30 range I would think would be in that category. I've heard the current/last generation called generation seX and a couple others poking fun at generation X. I would think ours would be the video game generation, techno generation..or something similar. Think about all the video game system that you played or at least saw as a kid/teen...or at least I did. Atari(some may be a little to young for this one), Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Game Boy(advance), Game Gear, Super Nintendo, 3DO, Neo-Geo, Atari Jaguar, N64, Playstation, PS2, Sega Dreamcast, X-box. Then there is computers...they have been speeding up faster and faster every year. How many kids do you see outside actually playing anymore? I know I see very few around here. They are all shut in playing on computers or video games, just like me

From what I found, Generation X are those born between 1966-1983. Generation Y from 1984-present.
