We noticed that Mom (83 years old) was having trouble seeing the screen on her aging iMac so we thought maybe a new iMac with the better LCD monitor might be better for her.
I told her I was going to the computer store to look for a new computer for me and stopped to look at the iMac sitting there. I turned my back and when I looked back, there was Mom leaning on her cane, playing with the new computer. Now it's in her bedroom and she's playing with it for real.
AND she doesn't need to squint and wear her reading glasses to try and see the screen. I feel sorry for people who buy those cheapo machines from the office stores - the machines are no good we all agree on that, but even worse is the crappy monitors. Most older people are having eye problems and it's a shame they are inflicting that on themselves.

Oh BTW, they also had a sweet 1Ghz 12" PB that fit nice under my arm heehee!!
