My mom, 67, hates technology, doesn't even like my oven because she can't get the sequence of buttons down (bake-temp-start--- ALWAYS forgets to push START)---
Is sending me emails every day. And texts too that I know take her about 4 minutes to write out every single one...
She's really trying, and I completely credit the MacBook I helped her buy while I was there over the summer. I literally dragged her to the store to pick it out for her. My dad would have NEVER let her get one had he been there with her. He gave her *permission* to buy a MacBook, but he didn't actually know how much they cost. He's used to PCs, but I know my mom couldn't deal with all the PC Crap. Of c ourse, when he saw how much it cost, he said he could've bought 4 laptops for that!!! And I know my mom would not have used even one of them, bc she would've been too frustrated...
She wanted a computer for her photos (their old PC didn't even have computing capacity for them to download their digital cards-- Dad has over 1000 pictures on his card that he can't put anywhere!) She's been doingn her photos, has taken 2 little classes that were given by the Computer people (they only sell Macs), and she's making huge strides. She's even ready to Skype.
Now all I wonder is if Dad's going to replace his dinosaur Dell with another PC or with an iMac.
