No you are not. The best jobs, law, medicine, public sector, physio, dentist, pharmacist, accountant require about as much technical skills as a dog.

Technology is an awful career choice anyway. You work way harder than most other careers and have little job security and compete with India who do things for a tenth the price.
I'd spend more time providing evidence for each of your points as to how misguided you are, but your username suggests it wouldn't be worth the time.
Technical careers are bloody tough going. Most Irish people don't want jobs in technology even thou there are thousands. The reason is because you have to work way harder for your money and spend a lot of time keeping having to keep up to date. It is an ok career in your 20's and then after that most people burn out or freak out.
And besides if you think having an iPad for a school is a way to technically savy you are misguided. Go and learn Objective C and write an App. Then realise how little money you make for all your work and do something else with your life while you have time.
Apple are scam company and should be kept away from our education system. Sure they have people taking their own lifes the working conditions for these iPads are so bad.
