True. I can see it now, with my ear trumpet plugged firmly into my 
lughole, my dutiful daughter shouting triumphantly into the big end 
of it: "Hey, Pai, I'm downloading NWP v.2!!!"

And an idiotic smile will break through the wrinkles of my prune-like 
face and I'll drool and dribble and cavort about and wave an 
arthritic finger or two in jerky motions reminiscent of typing.

("Pai" means "Dad" in Portuguese. It's about the only Portuguese she 
knows, due to her mother's dereliction of duty, except for "kwekash" 
-- here spelt phonetically. Lovely word. I also know "muito cervajha 
por favor". Is that correct? Who knows, but it produces desired 
results.)
