Why to older adults have problems with the computer?
Well for starters, I'll soon be 51 and I've used this blasted thing for at least the past 20 years. And although I've searched and searched, I still can't seem to find that danged "ANYKEY"!

I was a little off on my first computer, it was really an Olivette typewriter type that used magneto strips about one and a half inch wide for storage. I had to have a different strip for each job. Later I upgraded to the 5100, then to a Rexon. That Rexon used disks that were about 16 inches across and held a whole 5 megabytes. Ahhh "the good old days". I will soon be 84, still working, in fact that is where I am right now.
The very best to you and yours.
