[QUOTE="Kevin Lang, post: 913336, member: 65699"] Seniors won't use technology because it is too complicated? I think that is far too much of a generalization. I know tons of "seniors" who use, and teach, technology. Like TJR said, seniors who refuse to learn technology do so because of their own personal traits, not their age and the handicaps that sadly come hand-in-hand with it. I'd suspect that a person who does not have the ambition to learn to deal with technology as a senior would not have had it before being a senior, and you say that there are people who are 20 years removed from being seniors who will not touch it, confirming this idea. So the market for your oversimplified computer would not be the large market of "seniors", but the much smaller market of "unambitious seniors", echoing Bill V and TJR. (Note that by unambitious I mean they lack the ambition to learn to work with technology, not that they lack all ambition, though that is a possibility. I also know seniors who loathe technology, but are still fairly ambitious...though nowhere near as many) [/QUOTE]
