Happy Birthday David!
Hey we made it through Monday.
Richard, my MIL is the is almost as computer inept as your brother, with one MAJOR difference. She just freaks out at the idea of updating anything or changing things. She uses Quicken to keep her checkbook. She HAS to upgrade from some old version that is several years old by April 15th or it will stop working. She is just going to wait for us to come up there and she will "let" me do the upgrade. It is super simple, just pay for it, and click a few buttons. She breaks out in a cold sweat thinking about it. She 86 so I guess I will cut her some slack.
One reason we got her an iPad is that it is safe, and updates are pretty painless. There is a constant updates just like Windows, but the iPad is simple and she has admitted the iPad has made her life better. She reads a TON of books all for fee, she plays games and does her email. It has helped keep her mind active. Way better than just watching TV.
She even admitted to reading a analog paper book the other day and from habit just swiped he finger to go to the next page like one does with an e-book.
