Even the aged can learn Linux

Wordless Wednesday

Linux for dummies … well this ladies no dumb, although she might be a little old to learn all about linux. Good for her!

BTW I haven’t written here for a while - obviously the upgrade went just fine. I’ve just been busy, but I’ve found plenty of great stuff to write about. I just need to find the time!

Maybe she is a Peanuts fan, and she thinks it’s about Linus.

You know… I tried learning linux from a manual, but I found out you’ll never gonna get there if you don’t experiment directly on the PC.

I wonder if granny has even a PC to experiment with.

I have never really like the “For Dummies” series, but if it works for you then I am all for it. It would be cool if she was really trying to learn it!

I think that we can learn any thing we want no matter what the age is , only thing needed for that is little will power to learn some thing new.

Maybe she’s just trying to fall asleep. Although, she actually looks like she’s interested in the book.

I hear ya! Finding time to write isn’t easy. Finding time to learn isn’t either. I’m in the dummy catagory and need that book! AHHH!

What a great way to spend your retirement, be a dummy trying to learn Linux. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks.
