"Joanna and Nannie" Joanna and wrote in
message ...
I am helping my ninety-year-old grandmother learn to use the computer. Does
anyone have advice or can anyone point me to a knowledge base on basic
(like,
REALLY basic elementary stuff) computer skills? At this point, my primary
objective is for my nannie to get the hand-to-eye coordination for the
mouse... any suggestions? She likes to play bridge-- is there a free
download for bridge? Thanks! Joanna (and my Nannie)

Perhaps a jigsaw puzzle program would help. You can find Jixxa he
http://www.risoftsystems.com/ . Jixxa can create puzzles from most *.jpg
and *.bmp image files. You can find good images for puzzles at the National
Geographic Picture of the Day he

For Bridge programs suggest a Goggle search.
