My Mom kicks all you's buttocks. Got a Radio Shack franchise in 1983, we kids got in on the ground floor of personal computing (on Color Computers and TRS-80's). She does tech support for others her age. Or did, in Colorado in a community for older folks, and is now in Costa Rica figuring out how to get online. Seth Johnson Marshall Eubanks wrote:

As a very smart person said a couple of weeks ago when this same argument was made: are you willing to do tech-support for my mother is she uses linux?
Gadi.
Name anyone techie who doesn't have to do tech support for their mother on MS Windows..
The ones whose Mom's got Macs, of course. (Well, in my case it's my Mother-in-Law, but the tech support required has dramatically reduced.)
