**iPad owners 'over-achieving selfish elites' **

[]l Victor Godinez/Reporter || Or, as the researchers phrased it, "selfish elites." [|From Wired:] > Consumer research firm MyType conducted the study, in which opinions of 20,000 people were analyzed between March and May. The firm's conclusion was that [|iPad] owners tend to be wealthy, sophisticated, highly educated and disproportionately interested in business and finance, while they scored terribly in the areas of altruism and kindness. In other words, "selfish elites." They are six times more likely to be "wealthy, well-educated, power-hungry, over-achieving, sophisticated, unkind and non-altruistic 30-50 year olds," MyType's Tim Koelkebeck told Wired.com.
