Hi all
I have a friend (senior citizen) that just got a computer, and needs a web site or a tutorial that takes him from turning on the computer onthru the basics.
I suggested video professor, and his reply was that was still to advanced (lol) for him to follow along.
You all have any suggestions?
Thanks Mel

I did a Google search for "basic windows tutorial" and got 13,400,000 hits. One of them is bound to suit him.

Near the top of the Google list was this page (http://www.helpwithpcs.com/courses/windows-xp-tutorial-desktop.htm). If he's got Windows XP, it might be what he's looking for.

If he's using XP, he can also take the "tour" located in Start>All Programs>Accessories>Tour Windows XP.
