A good point but I wonder how many Mom's and grandma's install operating systems on their computers. :)

- reirob 15y agoYou're right there are not many grand parents able to install an OS. But in our family the children offered a laptop three years ago to their mother - she never had a computer before. We installed Ubuntu on it and she is using it happily now for 3 years. We do not have a single problem with viruses and such. This is what was behind the decision to install Linux. But to come back to the topic, the author of the parent comment is right - it is already difficult for old people to get used to their application, but if then every 6 month the applications for photos is changing it is a pain. So for my mother in law we go with Ubuntu LTS. I am a little bit worried how it will work out with the next LTS if it is going to be Unity :D
