    I wan't her to have a smidgen more control over the options of what she can install and what she can use compared her dumbed down peers.

I fear a time (And I think you might feel similarly) where she CAN'T install what she wants, where she CAN'T choose what she uses because of DRM/Proprietary devices.

When I think about the death of 'general purpose computing' I see the ossification of our current technological caste system, with it's different levels of brahmin techno-magi.
