I'm slowly working on my uncle and then hopefully my dad :) People are so resistant at first, but if you let them try your computer out for a bit and show them that things aren’t all that different from windows they slowly become more and more interested.

Do you have full control over the files on it? If so you could probably install WordPress on it. That would prbably be pretty nice. Good deal on the camera. As far as quality goes you might not see a difference by looking at the pictures on your computer. You will probably notice that the resolution on the sd800 is higher than the sd500. I normally use my camera in the automatic mode. Then in certain situations I switch it over to manual. It has some nice preset modes, but I never seem to be taking pictures of the stuff that the presets are for :( I’ve never used .mac so I can’t really say how good it is.

Or since she's already got a monitor, keyboard, and mouse sitting around get her a cheaper mac mini and buy a a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVM/IP" rel="nofollow">KVM</a> so that she can use both computers at the same time :) Thats a cool idea.
