"Among consumers, Forrester found attitudes toward technology almost evenly split, with 49 percent of all households rated as optimists and 51 percent as pessimists.

West Virginia, where only 39 percent of residents consider themselves technology optimists."Wondering where consumers are in the digital spectrum?
