The ridiculous Amish model of being conservative with new technology and considering as a community if it has benefit to the society before introducing it?

Inconceivable. If a new technology comes out, we need to adopt it in 0.1 seconds, or we'll be Stone Age caveman losers!

Are they just conservative though? Or paleoconservative? I.e. not 5-15 years behind current tech (okish), but more like a century (catastrophic)?
