It doesn't make you technologically challenged, it just means you get joy out of making the cutouts yourself Some people get more enjoyment out of doing things like cutting paper or making their own embellies and whatnot. Then there are some, like me, who get more enjoyment out of the finished product. So I have a cricut to help me get things done faster because if it takes me too long I will get frustrated and overwhelmed. I don't think it has anything to do with technology. If you enjoy the process you have, then it's good that you don't feel pressured to buy a gadget just because other people have them.
