My mum and dad both uses their computers on a daily basis and yes on occasions things don't always work as expected.

When that happens they ask me to fix it and if it wasn't me, then yes they would take it to a computer technician.

Just like they take their car to the mechanic.

Guess what. Not everyone is or wants to be a computer programmer and that group makes up the majority of all Windows users.

And why Windows has been so successful is you can get away with knowing very little about computers (like my mum and dad) yet still find Windows easy to use.
