Hi Dan,

The most effective way (sometimes too effective :) of teaching mouse
coordination is to introduce the person to solitaire. I'd highly recommend
Pysol. My daughter, who avoids computers, does like Tetris and Xbill.
Though check out Xbill yourself first to see if it is suited to your
mother's sense of humour.
