Need some help so here's the story.......my garandad has retired now so he's decided he wants to get in on the whole "computer revolution" so I've sorted him out with a laptop & internet access.
Now I'm trying to teach him how to use it but the problem is that he's never used a computer before, so anything I try to show him or say goes completely over his head
It's unbelievable how hard it is to explain things to a complete novice as I take for granted what I know about computers & it's 2nd nature to me (within reason lol) how they work.
I've already got him a book called laptops for the over 50's, that explains what it is & how it works, it's just the using the programs that's causing him difficulties now
Can anyone recommend me some sort of book or online guide that I can print off? Needs to go through the most basic of basic things to know about using a computer and in plain & simple english, anything to cut the phone calls down from every 5 mins :dapprove:
