Hi all,
I'm planning on giving my Mom my old 400 MHz iMac DV to replace her
first generation iMac (not much of an upgrade but it's free). I have
Mom set up with OS9 set in Simple Finder mode. The iMac I'm giving her
is running OSX Jaguar. Is there an equivalent of OS9's Simple Finder in
OSX? Is it simply a matter of setting her up with a limited access user
account? All she uses is, Netscape, Outlook and Simple Text. Am I
better off just wiping the HD and installing OS9 again? This is an 80
year old woman with failing eye sight who consistently calls me up to
ask why Outlook won't let her send an e-mail to
www.somethingorother.com. I love her, but I'm not sure if switching her
to OSX is the right thing to do. For both of us.
