Originally posted by CoolCat View PostOK so I have a pensioner friend, who would like to use skype (or google hangouts) occasionally, that’s about all, video calls to friends abroad
She has no clue at all about IT, and I won't be around to be the support bod
What's the easiest way to give her idiot proof access to skype?
I was thinking maybe an android tablet, pre-set to log into skype, but even that I am scared will be too much for her
Is there an even easier fool proof way to do it?Comment
