It will have to be fool proof (he is no fool), VERY easy to use, limited GUI that relies on either big graphics or if it needs to have text, greek since he doesn't speak any english.

Need to be able to type simple documents, browse the internet/www, and it wouldn't hurt if there were some simple games also available, but that isn't important.

Thank you guys, but what I am looking for it just doesn't exist.

Not that it matters any more since he told me he doesn't want this.
