[AT] OT - Tablet computers

[toma at risingnet.net]

I have been a Mac user since'89. Never could stand windows. It really pains me to have to use my wife's laptop to do taxes every year. Now I run smartphones that I get on eBay for about $50. I love the Android system. Compatible with everything and will do everything. Maybe you could get your wife a cheap Android phone to play with to see if you could wean her off the iPad. I just run mine on wifi. I hardly need a computer. I have my mom's iPad here but it sits in a drawer discharged and unused.
