Heh. I remember the time my stepdad accidentally clicked on a pop-up ad or something and reset the home page to a porn site. He called me in an absolute panic to fix it before my mother got home because he was afraid she would see it and think he had been using porn
Fwiw I have great respect for people like my aunt who have no experience with this in their lives and yet are ready to take the plunge and learn it at this stage. I imagine it would be like learning a foreign language to some of them. My aunt is a bit of a new-agey type and has a crystal she uses to guide her in her decisions. The crystal is very enthusiastic about her getting an iPad
And yes, it sounds weird, but if that gives her comfort, so be it.
Oh, and I did ask the crystal if DRM would be going the way of the dodo soon. The crystal had no flippin' idea
The spirit world has nothing to say on this one, folks---we is on our own
