No, your computer illiterate family members (as well as anyone who has any mental disabilities for that matter and can't understand what is going on) are going to get screwed. There's something about throwing them under the bus that doesn't sit right with me. It's almost like victim blaming your computer illiterate Windows using family members who get caught up in malicious malware downloads and stuff

I only had a spare keyboard laying around, and had to finish the install (disable all spyware) and delete the faulty drivers without a mouse, that wasn't exactly fun.
