Today the Beast went out and bought what I believe is a small tablet (computer thingy). He already has one but it has a volume problem and that creates a real problem for him because his hearing is so bad these days. He had me work on it for a few minutes to see if I could access some of the sites that I would normally use. It can switch to a keyboard and everything is *touch*. Well, I managed to get to a couple sites but I forgot my passwords. At least on my computer, it saves those for me....LOL.
But then, he went out and bought himself an iPad. It came with no instructions at all and he went nuts trying to figure it out. I told him that he probably should go see the Princess and have her show him since I know she has one. Or get Chewlee to show him. I laughed but he didn't. But he did say...*That would be funny except it's probably true.* Chewlee has one that she uses, mostly to watch movies on and to play games but she knows how to get around on one. I think he is still at a loss.
What's worse is that he has another one on it's way that he ordered the other day (it will probably come tomorrow). I think he is hoping that IT has instructions. He says every time he tries to get somewhere on this iPad, it keeps asking him for a password. And the newest one cost $400. To him, that was *reasonable* and he liked the reviews. He also bought a special router that allows the tablet and iPad to access our internet via the ethernet built into them. The router we had only allowed whatever was hardwired into the system to work he said.
So today was interesting, needless-to-say. The air was blue with all his swearing when he got frustrated. I fed him to shut him up and make him take a break. I almost never swear and the words I DO use are really very mild ones. I never swear in frustration at inanimate objects because that's not useful or constructive. I didn't know I married a sailor....LOL.
Time to go. Love you all. Remember to be kind. It doesn't cost a thing and makes you a better person. ***Hugs***
Just go online and download an ipad owners manual.
