I read somewhere that it is a consequence of the way these things work that they will naturally be more cooperative and helpful if you are nice to them, and if you order them around brusquely they will be less so. Maybe following the patter

I know a suprising number of people 10-20 years older than me who regularly use desktop computers but do not understand what a window is e.g.: that windows can cover each other up, and that there are special places you must grab or click th
