I figured they were talking about the Oregon Trail generation. It's made up of the folks who were old enough and young enough to play the game in schools and spans across parts of X and millennials.

Commodore? I know they had a tape drive and the game. I had an old TI 99/4A with a tape drive and we had Chisholm Trail but it was different.

Yup the PET. I had a copy if the game I got off a friend which was weird as I didnt have a PET though my 1st grade classroom did.

That's a great way to describe our larger cohort! I'm going to use that. I've got so many friends across the Gen-X to Millenial range that all feel like members of the same generation.
