Some of the posts are ageist


Obviously not the fellow who made the "Helping Grandma with the controller" poster.

My dad was an avid computer user to the end, even when MS reduced his manual dexterity to almost nil. It is amazing all of the accessibility settings there are even on an old XP desktop or lappy. Touch screens can be dicey even with a young body; I think having a tactile keyboard will be important for many aging users. One certainly cannot generalize about aging computer users; look at the Dekatron guy, wonder what he runs now?
