You and I speak from a position of experience. You and I know the differences. But as an example, my father-in-law is a very intelligent man. However, I get emails from him frequently on things like...'how do I save a file attached to an email?'....'How do I attach a file to an email?'...

Switching him to a Linux desktop from a Windows desktop would throw him into a tailspin. My wife's best friend is the same way. I call them "rock breakers".

People like this disprove the author's claim that 'anyone' can do it. I would agree with "almost anyone can do it." But that's not what he wrote.

LOL! OK. But to be fair, if he is constantly asking you questions like that, the answers are only different in regards to where the buttons are located.
