I'm a neophiliac??? oooh ... sounds awful ... but I like it!!!
More power to the neophiliacs! (I just bought a new heatsink and 256 megabytes of RAM for my old computer that i've been updating since forever with new stuff...)
This article reminded me of how old my cell phone is (going on 3 months now).
Our whole modern world is too materialistic. We're spending money we don't have on things we don't need. We're working longer and longer hours and more days just so we can have large houses, H2s and the latest video game consoles. It's time to grow up and live a more natural life.
I think, this artical dosn't touch on the Evoloutionary reasons for this Genetic predispositioin, to attain better and more advanced technologies, I would suggest that this is a driving force in the story of mankind.
