The thing that most troubled my grandmother when she got her computer wasn't the filesystem or the mouse/keyboard combination; it was the fact that the computer knew which emails she had looked at and which she hadn't. She found it very unnerving.
Apologies if I've drifted off topic.
- froo 17y agoNot off topic, my grandmother just cannot use a mouse. She's sat in front of my PC and is absolutely baffled by it. I might as well have asked her to do Differential Calculus. However, I think the iPad will be different. If she's playing say, solitaire and wants to move something - she touches it with her finger and moves it. Easy.
