Hi everyone, I am retired and love computers. I wanted to see what the Ipad was all about, read reviews and went out and bought one, I was a Microsoft guy, but now am an Apple guy too! My most liked hobby is FTA also known as Free To Air Television . I also like computers and love my grandchildren. Hope to learn a lot by using this forum as a noob I have a lot to learn.

Hi Rhody13 and welcome to the forum. Beautiful place Rhode Island, one that I would like to visit one day. Myself, I live in Adelaide, South Australia and, like you, I'm also retired and knew nothing about iPads until I bought one. Now my Windows8 PC has a more lonely life except when my wife feels like googling stuff or reading/sending emails. Nice you are enjoying life and I reckon your new iPad is just going to add to that. You’re now among iPad enthusiasts in this Forum who are only too willing to help other iPad owners. Dive in and take part in any discussions within any topic that interests you. Just check out the various sub-forums here.

Ask any questions about stuff that may puzzle you here, but also use the ‘Search’ button near the top of the Forum web page, as many that have gone before you are likely to have asked also.

Regards, Andrew
