[citation][nom]babybeluga[/nom]....ok, so there was a 5-year old, a dog, a cat, and now an old lady...Anybody have another ridiculous idea for a new article?[/citation]
A chess burger?
 
[citation][nom]zargg[/nom]uh yea if she has never used a computer before, of course she will be amazed by using a computer. She would probably be just as amazed at a cell phone, laptop, netbook, CRYSIS at LOW settings even![/citation]

This made me chuckle. Bravo sir bravo.
 
You guys are lame. Go hump your PC's some more.

I think it is awesome that a 99 year old lady digs some new tech that just came out.

Always great to see a bunch of oldies playing with "toys".... yes... literally toys... no real "work" can be don with this..
 
[citation][nom]jecastej[/nom]The iPad is an undeniable family gadget.[/citation]

Your idea of a family must be pretty depressing considering everyone will be staring at a screen in their laps.

The Wii can be considered a family gadget because more than one person can play with it. Just throwing it out there.

Wait... if you're asexual then your iPad could be considered a family gadget.

The iPad is only revolutionary because Apple unveiled an innovative idea prematurely and will be overrun by the myriad of other manufactures that can finish the puzzle and make something completely useful.
 
Probably not the best idea to have her hunched over the iPad like that. At her advanced age posture is important.
 
[citation][nom]shadow703793[/nom]Ummm.... not to be a an @ss, but there are more important news to cover: ie: http://www.dailytech.com/Blippy+Re [...] e18217.htm[/citation]

Well, you can just go to Daily Tech instead of coming here to cry about every non-AMD/ATI article posted. Sound like a reasonable plan?
 
"Now with that concept blown up in the iPad, Apple's new device could be the most idiot-proof computer ever."

So basically, being old, makes you stupid?, that is an unfortunate paragraph

*sigh*, another pointless article with a low res youtube vid...

Next on Tom's Guide: "Dog Loves the iPad! See the chewing marks live!"

Seriously... I love reading the stuff here, but seeing every 3 articles covering a product that is barely out is just too much.

As for the lady, good for her that she likes it. Now can the rest of us move on and try to make decent articles for Tom's?
 
so easy, a cavewoman can use it!

why does someone age have any weight on how good a product is?

or are thy pointing out like the jitterbug phone, that its so stripped and dumbed down that even the golden years people are comfortable with it?

im sure there is a 90+ man out there that loves scat porn. does that give it more weight in the realm of credibility and usefulness in porn watchers circles? no.

We need a 12-yr-old to try it and like it, then we can say it's 100% idiot proof.
 
Uh... just because somebody is old doesn't mean that they don't know anything about tech. I know some people in their 70's that are better with tech than I am. (Probably has something to do with the fact that they are retired and have boatloads of time to spend learning tech stuff. lol Gotta love grandpa.)
 
I think toms is deliberately winding people up with all this apple shit. I bet they are laughing theit heads off!
 
I am going to be 99 years old and still not care about these worthless mac articles. Worst part is that I still read the article just to comment about how much i don't care. /face palm.
