As the daughter of an 86 year old father who decided to build, rather than buy, his latest PC this summer (and who retired before his workplace even had computers), I certainly don't assume that to be old = to be stupid. For my own sake, I sure hope not! But if you take the time to read the OP's description of his MIL's condition, you will see that she is experiencing some dementia, which affects short term memory and the ability to learn new things.
