Understanding computers

I've been following these thing almost 36 years now! and there comes a realization that most folks you come across fall into two main categories, those who either get computers or those who don't.

Take my ex wife, who once said that no one told her that moving the mouse makes the arrow on the screen move up and down. She was being serious. Luckily for me my current wife is one of those 'naturals' she just gets it .

It's interesting, when you get to work and look around at the people in the office and the various aptitudes that are present when it comes to using computers. Especially noteworthy is the extent to which some will go to disguise their aparent lack of abilities.

Things have certainly changed in the last two decades, when computers screens consisted of green text an menu driven programs, which some of us miss I might add because of their speed.

Google Chrome

Well gosh darn, another browser! This time from the clever clogs at Google.
Nothing like those braniacs to come out with something with consulting what users want.
A browser should work out of the box.
This means, that content plays right there on your screen without any user intervention or those inane "plugin missing" windows you get when trying to view content!

The best browser would have it all built in. It would already play Flash with out the user having to download from Adobe. You could go to your favorite Pogo game and not have to deal with the "Java not installed" message.
