Hopefully everything goes smoothly. We looked at some fancy phones at Verizon last week. They have these tiny little flip phones that they bough like 8 years ago that they will not give these up. Once they find something they know how to use it?s what they stick with until it dies.

Getting my parents to upgrade was a little like pulling teeth, but when I explained that they could leave a message by texting and get their email, they loved it, the slide out key pad made it easier as well. Mom found that by texting my daughter, she got more communication from her.
With the price of printers, I would buy a new one for them, you can get a new one with scanner and fax for under $100 and go with a compnay thats cheaper on ink like Epson, that is if you can't get the drivers for the old printer.
Last week I upgraded my moms PC with a flat screen, I had a 22" viewsonic I wasn't using

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
