Do you think that browsers and email clients like FireFox and Thunderbird offer enough safety, popup protection, and other features (my wife has become a fan of tabbed browsing...misses it when she goes to her part time job!) to motivate thinking outside the box at a level just below/above the OS? All in my family adapted to FireFox with little or no training whatsoever. Our daughter jumped right into using a Ubuntu machine that I set up for her with little (10-15 minutes) or no training. The only reason she stopped using it is because I never got the printer driver or USB driver installed on it. Now she's living between college classes and our home computer via email and thumb drive.
