[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 524854, member: 9385"] My dad is 63 and I gave him one of my old Mac Minis. He seems to like it, and does a few things with it that are best done with a Mac, such as video iChat and iTunes like things with his iPod Shuffle. Now, if you were a crusty old COBOL programmer that pines for the days of the IBM 3270s and punch cards that'd be one thing. Come to think of it, my dad IS a crusty old COBOL programmer that pines for the days of IBM 3270s. Probably not the punch cards though. I don't think anyone misses those. Hmm, I'm kind of a crusty old UNIX guy, but then again Mac OS X is UNIX, so I'm not a good example. You'll be fine with it. ;D [/QUOTE]
