I Genuinely Require Support, I know I am asking for a whole lot of assumed and operate to help with this and I want you to know it will make a massive difference for a quite amazing man or woman.
I want to acquire a laptop (laptop computer due to the fact of bodyweight, restricted area requirement, capacity to move it from location to location effortlessly) for a very elderly intelligent (novice level pc comprehension) man or woman, who INSISTS (pigheaded independence) on residing alone...but who is virtually blind with macular degeneration, and extremely extremely tough of hearing.
They are quite lonely, and frail: and I am hoping that if I get a speech recognition method, and they get acquainted with it before they finally shed ALL sight...AND, if I have some sort of earphones that can make the audio obvious and loud enough, that I can consider some of the terror out of, and loss of control away from, what is occurring to them.
Furthermore I hope to be ready to check in on them visually, and offer some safety for them, when they have workmen in the property.
They can't sit in one particular location for long, due to extreme arthritis, so have to be in a position to move freely in the house with the laptop, from table, to sofa, to bed.
I have very restricted laptop or computer savy, so please be straightforward. Sadly my money are not significantly either.
With this in mind, please help me realize:
What I want to buy in the pc (memory, ports, display screen, audio, wi fi, camera, battery, ...)
AND what may possibly be the greatest, easiest, and most reliable:
programs (to convert text to speech, read mail, manage finances...),
devices (earphones, routers...)
AND which computers, and organizations do you advise especially for ease of use, and reliability?
AND Nearly anything ELSE YOU CAN Think OF to make a method for this individual function best.
Plus, exactly where to purchase this stuff from...and who to set it up? I looked at some of the large chains, and to set it up costs as a lot as the methods I noticed in the retailer. Is this normal, and will they know what they are performing? ALSO, some of the big retailers have " G''k squads" that are meant to come out to the residence (if the individual calls them for a issue) as component of the bundle purchased. Is this support excellent? secure?
Any recommendations of other products...are appreciated here. This particular person has had to be a real tough cookie to survive in their life, and they just are not able to rely on other folks sufficient to stay with or rely on other individuals. I've been worried and I am getting far more so.
