“Seldom do I see my parents-in-law playing a heated
game of Quake or doing any kernel tinkering, nor do I see them
downloading, untarring, compiling and installing some piece of
software for their system.“No, Windows isn’t the answer. I can’t tell you how many times
I’ve installed, reinstalled, reconfigured, de-virused, de-spywared
and rebooted their computers over the past 10 years. I don’t even
answer the phone when I see their number because I know the next
words I’ll hear are, “Oh, Ken, my computer…” and I just can’t do
it any more. The subsequent long and detailed voicemails are
causing me drink alcoholic concotions based upon every fruit,
berry, leaf and bean known to mankind.”
