Ninety-nine year old gets her first computer and its an iPad

By Jim DalrympleApril 22, 2010, 12:36 pm PT

We’re all talking about how we use our iPads and there are some interesting stories out there, but none as interesting this one. A 99 year old got her first computer and chose an iPad. So far she read two books and is writing poetry. Quite an amazing story.

  1. If its iPad really her first computer, I must say, she types pretty fast.
    Sweet story.

    I can see why Steve said the iPad is his most important product.

    It's going to sell like hotcakes and like no other computer before it.

    The aesthetics of its design and user interface and going to usher it into new areas and applications far broader than was possible with legacy machines.

    It shows how powerful a computer can be. Good story!

    Amazing! I'm sharing this story with all my friends and anyone else who will listen. :) I love in the news story video when she marvels at how in 1910, when she was born, the automobile was barely getting started, and look at all the advancements made to now…
