... but to be fair, we are the type that if we see a friend with a
computer problem, we are likely to offer advice and find ourselves fixing
not only the 'problem', but the plethora of underlying problems that we
see as the cause. Then we start cracking off about what a lousy OS windoh$
is and get to watch the eyes glaze over with lack of understanding (or
caring "just fix my email, okay?"). :)
