Hi All,
We have had an enquiry from the luv website, it is as follows:

HI, I have been a MacOS user for 12 years (loved it at the beginning) &
at 81 yo & health issues, haven't got the time to continue pushed
upgrades of software & hardware & total control & continually having to
learn new stuff. and cyber security.
I accept that it is hard to live in this world without IT, but with
little life left, I want to minimise it.
Wondering if you have any members who have a lot of experience with
MacOS various vintages and hardware, who would like to earn a bit of
money installing & maintaining the most suitable Linux distribution on
one of my od MacBook Pro & MacBook Airs (all top of the range for their
era - 2013-2014 vintage with thunderbolt 2 ports and requiring
everything permanently cabled: keyboard, mouse, superdrive, USB-A &
USB-C, 2 time machine backup external 4TB drives, Brother & HP Lazer
printers, sound system, iPhone sync cable due to my EMF hypersensitivity
which prevents me from using bluetooth & wifi).
Whatever distribution it is, needs to have the briefest learning curve
because although I was an IT expert 50 years ago, I have significant
health problems & brain fog now so want something simple safe and
reliable which does all the necessary computing to participate in this
world, ie. communicate with my home care package provider (SAH now) and
my friends, family, health professionals, regular support workers, buy
all my food & other needs online, do all my banking & listen to my
favourite music.
Have also fpiund it difficult to buy a Linux book that doesn't just pay
lip service to Mac Users - they are all highly windows user focused. If
you know of some that is for the layman, not compute geeks, that woudl
help me, I'd love to know. Linda
