Yeah, this is the biggest single tip that it's a parody. the author uses the same bit for FDD and HDD.

It's too dumb to be a joke. Nobody is that creative.

Is that site a parody or is that sweet but misguided lady serious?

 

[revnja]

I hope that's a parody. I also feel sorry for the people that actually donated money to her (if it's real of course).

[archcommus]

I think that's someone who is actually trying hard to teach other mothers about computers. If that's the case I feel bad for her in her ignorant state.

Yeah I feel bad for her as well. I wish I could make everyone an expert at Computer Hardware Basics 101. I guess this is what happens when something highly technical makes its way into pop culture at such a fast pace. You get a lot of people trying to wrap their heads around it.

Besides its not like she's doing it for a living, probably just a side project to help herself learn more as well.

 

[archcommus]

Perhaps someone should kindly inform her and help her out?
