My brother, when I taught him to use computers/the internet (done this for my Mother, Brother and now my Grampa) took to this method very well. Understanding the concepts let him do anything he wanted. I don't know if its a language gap, or what, but I haven't been able to reproduce that result with either my Mother or Grampa. With my Mother is was just a TON of written notes all around her laptop. She refers to them often, but has become pretty self-sufficient. I help here out probably once a week with something she's forgotten, but otherwise she's good to go.
My grampa, on the other hand, doesn't seem to maintain that sustained interest, or persistence that my Mother had. He clearly believes (correctly) that there is a whole world out here, that he would like to be a part of, but his patience for understanding the nature of the internet is nil.
