I expect that form little kids. I'm not a parent -- yet but for goodness sakes I'm talking adults in their 50's, 60's and 70's here!

If fact kids and computers are usually not a problem. I'm sometimes embarresed that they will run circles around me but hey they have the time and sense of wonder and enthusiasm.

Why are computers such a problem with people who have mastered other complex skills like shorthand, chemical analysis, accounting, etc. Why aren't they will to learn what is need there? I have and on top of that I enjoy learning the computer stuff to.
