If you can also give the DU site a plug it will be useful too because until I recently came along they thought the world was only Windows. :-) I hope that an active interest into their site re Ubuntu will awaken them to how useful a reliable secure and stable OS is - for elderly and vulnerable novices. I would have had nightmares trying to do this with credit cards and Windows in the circumstances. It is a long little old piece, I will be happy to work with you to shrink it and if that is needed please give me some guidance? alan c > > We did a story a good year or so ago on a similar theme, written by > Knightwise, > about his 'Ubuntu Granny' using Ubuntu on her EEE that they bought her. > > BTW: just don't let her near Twitter, it's too addictive!!! ;D LOL At the moment she is happy that the internet is one very big shop. > If anyone else has Ubuntu themed stories/articles we're always looking for > stuff... > > > alan c wrote: >> I have posted this expos'e of how easy it is for a great grandma to do >> internet shopping on her own with Ubuntu.... >> http://dnc.digitalunite.com/2009/03/31/great-grandma-takes-internet-shopping-by-storm-with-ubuntu-linux/ >> >> It would be great to think it might get some good coverage, any >> suggestions please about where I could post about it? >> Or mention it yourself elsewhere by all means. >> > > -- > Ronnie Tucker > > ron...@fullcirclemagazine.org > FullcircleMagazine.org > > Jabber: ronnietuc...@jabber.org > > Registered Linux User # 456627 > Registered Ubuntu User # 18227 > -- Ubuntu user #10391 Linux user #360648 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
