This is for a 70 year-old who is quite happy with his comact digital but needs a very simple program for Windows XP to organize, enhance and print his photos. His PC is rather low power too, and while free would be great, a modest investment would be okay too. Really want everything to be simple for him above all else.

Wholly agree on Picasa. I set my mom in-law up with it (she just turned 80) and so far everything is going okay. Nice thing about it is, it is free, which means I can run a copy on my home machine even if I don't really need it. That way, if she calls me, I can talk her through the exact same steps on my machine as on hers.

I also set her up with remote control of her machine so I can connect and get her through any particularly tough situations.
