Hello,

If you weren't there and you were trying to explain that it's not as
easy as it sounds. I said "click the ubuntu logo on the top of the
left hand side of the screen" He returned to me "it just flashes a
box".

He was double clicking, so I asked him to single click and the box
popped up, no problem. He was presented with a lot of icons and things
for different parts of Unity, he didn't understand the concept of
searching for the program he was after so I had to explain that, and
explain that he couldn't open a list, which was his main goal.
