That's okay. My mother is around that age and started using a computer about a year ago. She doesn't want to be a hot-shot programmer or even anything remotely related to an IT professional. No time for that just yet, what with a full time job as a teacher in primary school and all the rest of the stuff she does at home. Yet, she has actually managed to learn quite an astonishing amount of things by spending a total of less than 200 hours during a period that lasted almost a year and a half. So, it's not impossible to learn using a computer even at this age. I'm not saying it's easy either, mind you. But it *can* be done ;) - Giorgos _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
