We love technology — until it refuses to cooperate (USA Today) -- "The instruction manual was incomprehensible, she says, and the customer-service phone number was like a black hole. She shelved the camera. A few months later, she broke the camera trying to use it. Her photos were never downloaded. She's shopping for another camera."

I have a relative who has purchased three computers in two years. He doesn't understand much about how Windows works or how file management works. Every now and then he loses the photos he has scanned, or his zip disk gets full, and he buys a new computer. I helped him a little (long-distance calls), but it became too much of a hassle. Now I'm thinking about all the computers I'll inherit some day. He already gave me his first scanner. Works great.
