I asked her if she wanted to play something more complicated. She said "no"

Check out the Hoyles Card Games series ... perfect for granny.

online poker

Go to Bestbuy or Circuitcity and check out their jewel boxes games. They are $10 or less and I think you can get one free if you buy two of them. There are tons of card/casino/word/etc. games.

Does she have internet access? If she does, she can go to www.pogo.com and play there. And the prizes are actually real surprisingly. I had a customer that won $1200 from there.

She plays when her internet works, which is rarely

Fix the internet? Or go to download.com and then games then i think there's a place for card/board games so download those and then put it on a cd then give to grandma.

my grandmother loves bookworm.

she also plays poker -- but i wouldn't recommend the gambling sites. i'm sure there's a freeware poker game out there.

My mom likes mahjong a lot. You can get a decent one for about $10 from Best Buy and the like.

What do you mean only when it works? Maybe i can help troubleshoot... i deal with Pogo issues quite often actually (i've never played the game myself).
