Answer 1

i think shell understand more if somebody like you can teach her rather than reading books and wasting time.

Answer 2

There is "Computers for Dummies" sn the other "Dummies" books don't take offense that is what they are called. You can also check with your local library to find out exactly what you are looking for. If you are wanting to take the basics, example internet usage and photoshop or maybe word basics these are all available at your community college for a fee. You can take it online or in a classroom. I would suggest taking it in the classroom. Call your local college, ask for an advisor and talk to them about what you are looking for. Good luck

Answer 3

The name is not intended to insult and is not to be taken seriously.

"PC for Dummies" is one of the books I bought back in 1997 when I bought my first computer. It actually was a big help and I understand the latest versions are much better than the one I bought.

Good Luck....
