No skillz whatsoever, that's for sure. I have to remind him once a week that his admin password is the same as his log-in. tongue.gif

P.S.- And don't even get me started on iOS updates................................When he updated (had me do it for him) his iPhone 4 to iOS 6 his apps got moved onto a new window of his home screen. "Damn son, I lost all my apps!".
"Uh....Dad.........try swiping..........."

Being "Mac Compatible" is not the same thing as having keyboard with working Mac keys(cmd,etc). Complete fail on the Razer "Mac" line.

Choose a mechy, replace keycaps, and remap buttons via a 3rd party program as OSX doesn't have full keyboard custom keys.

Tried my Thermaltake Meka G1 on his iMac but could not get past the "press the key to the right of the shift key" so the Das it is. Trust me, he'll be in hog heaven once he ditches that wireless Apple keyboard I got him last year.

Just an update, got the Das in 5 minutes ago in a HUGE box only half filled with packing paper from Newegg. On top of that the UPS driver set it out in the rain on the porch. Good thing I was home to bring it in. The Das box itself is only slightly dinged but the keyboard darn sure better be working when it gets connected.
