Ignorance, or a lack of willingness to learn. I'm a network admin at a private girls college, the type that doesn't want to understand how things work, just cares that they work. It's amazing to me the wonders of this world, and things that science has brought us, yet so many don't care and take forgranted that in my short life of 25 years, I remember no internet, to the dial tone of dial up in the mid ninties, to having now upwards of 1 GB fiber to the home. Hell, the cost of my first flash drive (1 GB for $55 in 2005) is insane now, as I purchased a 1 TB hard drive for the same price last year, and now won't be able to get that price for another year due to natural disasters. And then I hear people complain about how computers are expensive, and they didn't even know about the floods, or didn't read about that a majority of the major HDD manufacturers have their main facilities there.
