I was born in 84. My dad was an early adopter of PCs and online communication (BBSes, CompuServe, and later the Internet), and we always had a computer in the house. I also got to tinker with his old machines when he upgraded, which taught me a lot.
However, having a home computer was still somewhat of a luxury, and definitely not a necessity until at least high school for me. It wasn't until college that I could ask someone what their email address was without first asking whether they had email at all.
