	In pursuit of Gen X \| www.azstarnet.com ®
		Targeting Generation X travelers in San Diego and Las Vegas, the Tourism Office is launching a $352,000 "mystery campaign" with advertising on dry-cleaning bags and coffee sleeves, radio ads and a pair of interactive Web sites directed at those in their late 20s to 30s.

	Generation X - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Generation X in its conception is originally a western concept, although Japan has its own version of Generation X. Developing countries, which make up the vast majority of the global population, have a Generation X that differs from that in the West, due to poor education and little disposable income.
		The aspects that bind Generation X across economic levels and cultures are the defining points of the 1970s: the Bretton Woods system and its subsequent failure, the impact of the contraceptive pill on social-interactional dynamics, and the oil shock of 1973.
		Generation X has survived a hurried childhood of divorce, latchkeys, space shuttle explosions (primarily in the United States), open classrooms, widespread political corruption, inflation and recession, post-Vietnam national malaise, environmental disaster, the Islamic Revolution (in Iran), devil-child movies, and a shift from "G" to "R" ratings (which had little effect outside the United States).

	Definition of Generation X
		Generation X should not be viewed as a pejorative term and it's not an inflexible definition.

		Gen X was the first to experience MTV and the Fox network and they are an audience many advertisers are eager to reach.

	Generation X
		Gen X soon began to get a very large following and vast coverage in the teeny magazines, owing to their punk image.

	TrouserPress.com :: Generation X
		With Idol as the band's voice and image and guitarist Bob "Derwood" Andrews providing its rock power, Generation X broke a lot of punk conventions, and were ultimately ostracized by their peers for refusing to be (or even feign being, as many others did) anti-commercial.
		Their moniker truncated to Gen X, Idol and James employed once and future Clash drummer Terry Chimes and a trio of guitar stars — Steve Jones, John McGeoch and Chelsea's James Stevenson — but the spirit was gone from the music, and the LP is merely a pale shadow of the band's early glories.
		During their tenure in Generation X, Andrews and Laff were accused of being heavy metal musicians in disguise.

		Generation X has quickly entered our vocabulary as an easily recognizable moniker for the children of another definable generation: the "baby boomers."

		A third reality is of course that the American attention span is now nonexistent.
		Gen Whatever is far less to blame for this than Gen Thee and Me -- the parents, teachers and other adults who defaulted on their educational responsibilities -- but it remains that this, again, is the reality with which the custodians of the nation's past have to contend.

	OS X for x86 already in the wild? - Engadget - www.engadget.com
		Apple had OS X for Intel machines (which we’re lovingly referring to as OS X86) under wraps for a half a decade, and not a week after its announcement, a “developer version” is apparently already in the wild on P2P and IRC networks.
		A major reason for the OS X stability is because Apple controls both the hardware and software, and they release hardware that will work with the software they release.
		So we may not get OS X that runs on any pc out of the box, but we may see a very fast pearpc or pearpc type program (yes pearpc is really only for emulating ppc on x86).
