My initial reaction is that it should be the opposite: people who are enthusiasts would want to learn something new because they enjoy using and learning technology, whereas a "workdrone" would focus on being productive because they are focused on work.
I'm not saying you're wrong or that there's anything wrong with either mentality, I just don't find your statement self explanatory. Please do elaborate =]
Trouble is, "fun" for the enthusiast / self-perceived-non-workdrone does align with "productive". =)
