I take it you never dealt with older people. They are set in their ways, confused about changes, and frustrated because things can't stay the same.
EXACTLY! You know all this stuff is easy for us. People on these boards are technology orientated. Many average consumers are not.

I remember back in my TV repair days I had a service call to help someone hook up their TV. I go there and it's this old couple. The old man was explaining to me how the last place they lived there was a "round black wire" that plugged right in to the TV. Then he reached behind and pulled up the 300 Ohm twin lead and said "What the hell am I suppose to do with this?".
