Technolophobe

A person who is terrified of technology and refuses to use any technology that is recent or up-to-date. Usually a person of older age who grew up when new technology didn't exist and do not have any desire to use basic newer technology such as computers, dvrs, dvds, HD tvs, iPods, XM/Sirius radios, debit cards, etc.

My grandma is such a technolophobe. It looks like 1975 in her house. She has a tv with basic cable, and that's about it for entertainment. I bought her an iPod and she took it back and bought clothes with the money!
