Oh, before I go and watch the Telharmonium thing, I have to share a VERY funny story (because we are talking techno stuff here) that happened to me last week.
Just fyi, I am completely computer literate for over 30 years, I also have a cell phone and a Kindle Fire.
I was walking around my neighborhood and I stopped in front of a local Verizon store. There was this BIG sign outside and it read
"Add a tablet for $10.00 a month"
I had absolutely no idea what this meant.
I walked into the store, pointed to the sign outside and politely asked the CHILD who was working behind the counter and I said "What do you mean "Add a tablet for $10.00 a month?"
He looked at me, his eyes got big and wide and he said in a very slow voice:
"oh, a tablet is a rectangular device and you touch it with your fingers and people go on the internet with it" "Do you know what the internet is"?
Well!!!!!
I looked at him and said
"Fool, do I look stupid, I just wanted to know why anyone would pay to add a tablet to their plan" I then whipped out my Kindle Fire and you should have seen the expression on that 19 year old's face.
