you should have seen me explaining the concept of drivers to my mother when I was setting up their computer... I explained it like this... * JamesR-Tech covers his eyes this could be interesting "Imagine you woke up one morning with a third arm... you wouldn't know how to control it, right? So you get a book and read how to control it, and then you can use it." * JamesR-Tech copies and pastes to bash.org trhe arm is the modem, and the book is the driver. lol hey... she understood after that. :)
