I agree. I have plans to create a site with animated gifs explaining from the most basic things in computer interface. Things i see my 70yo parents struggling to achieve/understand: - how to close/minimize/maximize/open a window. - right click, left click common outcomes - enter a site URL - Google use - save files - navegate through local files Etc Edit: I know "I have plans" is worth nothing, but I am unemployed right now and on a carreer change. Once I have better financial stability I plan to pursue this more effectively.

To get you to think a little more outside the box - do elderly need "computers" or "connected devices"? My dad tossed his laptop once he learned his iPad. Just something to think on. Specific "gestures" can change with tech - just like 20 years ago when my parents learned how to use a mouse was different. How do you get elderly people to intuitively use a device?
