It seems, though, that the grandfather ran into a roadblock. As he related the story, the grandfather said, "You know, there's something wrong with this computer. Most of the time, when I fill out a form, it shows me exactly what I'm typing. But, once in a while, no matter *what* I type, it only shows '*' characters ..."
Well almost correct.. it's worse because the generation gap wasn't 'that' bad - that story was MY dad! (for real). I posted that message to this list first actually a couple months ago (it's in the archives). Guess it's making it to other blogging sites now. My dad is famous. way to go dad!
On a related note, my mom, who isn't much better off... I set them up with firefox and they couldn't figure out how to enter in a URL and "get it to work" since they didn't see a "Go" button that they were used to pressing with IE:) They didn't realize you could just hit enter after typing in the address. (I love explaining these things over the phone to them .. fun fun:)
