What's wrong with an iPad?

You might not like it but she'll think it's cool and getting her one will be guaranteed to get you some action.

She's a middle aged technophobe! Bog standard laptop with a keyboard is what she needs.

As for 'action': Christ! Don't want to encourage that at her age!! It would be scary!!

ipad, must be a female thing.
My mother-in-law has one, my wife wants one, but I think they look fucking pointless.
I might buy her an etch-a-sketch instead, a retro ipad.

Exactly what the iPad is aimed at... no virus warnings, no software to 'install', get your emails, and it even fits in the handbag (well most of them anyway..) perfect for all women....

One final thing my missus points out is that it doesn't take an age to boot up - it's on and it works...

She still doesnt want an ipad. She wants a keyboard and something that will enable her to manage registrations for a swimming club. So the laptop needs to be functional.
