While I can generally figure out much technical stuff, the problem comes in my translating it to my wife, who can't.

This weekend it has been how to scan old photos, enlarge, print, and also email that file to someone else. If there is some way to screwup the steps, she will figure it out, requiring me to back track the whole process to see where and what went wrong.

Drives me a bit nuts.

Plus, I just got a new DVD burner, not realizing that it would only handle DVD R+'s not DVD R-'s, requiring me to figure out a whole new dimension of copying a DVD, and buying some corresponding DVD+ discs.

I think I am technologically overwhelmed at the moment. What happened to those odometers and speedometers that attached to a cable that went on to a cog on the front wheel? Those I could understand.
