I think is looking for answers to the question of GUIs for people who
haven't yet used a computer. Off hand I can think of a number of cases:
1) People looking for work when all listings are accessible through
computers (happens a lot in unemployment offices)
2) People trying to stay in touch with friends/family who have moved
away who find that computers offer the best options for doing that but
who are new to computer technology
3) People in non-techno-centric cultures who find that they must use a
computer to access needed information or services from governmental
sources
4) And of course, the one child, one laptop program benefits children
(and teachers) who aren't computer users.

What are the scenarios? Why does a person who doesn't use computers
