If it wasn't for finding the grandsons I wouldn't be there at all.

Just as soon as we get comfortable with the current software, these IT folks have to change things. If it ain't broke don't fix it!<br /><br />None of us has the time to relearn this new software.

I got a Toshiba laptop for a class I was taking but it had that awful program on it so I went right back to my little MacBook Air afterwards. Still go back to the old dinosaur desktop for working on photos though.

I tell you this, though, the old one is more professional than the professional!"<br /><br />Valerie, that is the truth! As the new computer software's are update throughout the years, they seem to do less than what the older ones did. I still think Windows 98 was the BEST software that was ever created because it had many more features and was so user-friendly. <br /><br />I'Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-16675597731752612462014-09-23T17:34:04.448+01:002014-09-23T17:34:04.448+01:00User friendly is more important than any other par...User friendly is more important than any other part of the design. I have a very old computer that hangs on with it plugged into the wall with a keyboard and a screen connected to it so I can use. I am getting a new one soon but it will take a lot of time to move everything over to it. I wish I had answers for you as I know the computer thing can get to be so frustrating.L.
