feed a fellow a fish... he will be full for a day, teach that same fellow "TO" fish, he will be able to eat for a lifetime. I try to teach my parents what I did to their computer so when they have questions, they will be able to find it faster if I have to explain where it goes or what they are looking at. There is only like 3 times a year that I have to help them and they have like windows XP. Once in a while, like once a month or every 3 months, whenever i come home, I do a windows Update for them to make sure that everything is in top shape for them because I don't want them to kill their machine. If their machine is fried, than they have to waste money on a new one and worry about money for my college and I want to make sure that less money goes to unneeded spending and goes to more useful things... 8~) if you know what I mean.
