I enjoyed this short, the method of the animation gave it a surreal quality, which helped to convey how this kid felt about his initial question regarding dreams and reality.
But after reading several comments here, I beg to differ that this kid in the animae short is the same kid that followed Neo around like a lost puppy.
The kid in Reload was actually in the first movie, except that he was much younger. Remember the child Neo saw playing with the spoon as they both waited to see the Oracle? I believe those two are one in the same.
As for the problem of age - who is to say that just because you are 24 years old in real life, that your representation within the Matrix is also 24 years old? You could very well be younger or older.
