"Once the CD booted and I showed him the browser, he was off and running. I sat in the chair opposite his desk and watched him as he worked. He logged into his office server, retrieved the data and used his newly-opened Gmail account to fire off the critical information. He turned from the screen and asked me if he could keep this program on his computer.

I even showed him the files on his windows machine and pulled up All Along The Watchtowers" for him to listen to. All the time, he said nothing...he just watched....and listened"
