There is a difference.
This woman didn't want to try to use it, she got stuck with it on accident and then failed to make use of it.
"she bought an operating system for her computer she never heard of, Ubuntu"
That was her bad.
A few google searches by her would have revealed at least how to use Word or Open Office.
Sure if she was able to access the internet, which she wasn't...
And has it been shown that she really has a verizon card?- or does she just think she needs the magic cd that came with her cable modem?
Doesn't state whether she had a cable or dsl modem. Granted cable would be easier to setup usually just plug it in and go, but dsl would require some advanced configuration that it seems she is unable to do, obviously since she bought an os that she knows nothing about.
