    The Jws I know are less likely to make much use of the Internet.

    One ex-JW I know was threatened by her JW daughter & JW elder-son-in-law who threatened to take away her computer. They thought mom was spending too much time on it, chatting with worldly folks. She threw the two JDubs out of the house and reminded that she was a grown woman and knew how to conduct herself. After that, she became an ex-JW.

    Another current JW works with computers. Got a tablet, uses it to download magazines & books of interest. But, rarely surfs the Internet for knowledge or communication with others. Does have a Facebook account, but rarely posts.

    Another current elderlly JW has a computer, a laptop. Always into technology. But, would NEVER go on a site like this. Probably would take a shower if he bumped onone page by accident.

    The ASL groups use DVD players in sought out door to door service. Not Notebook PCs.

    Rather than a Notebook PC the device in question in that photo is more like one of their DVD players.

    Shades of Rutherford!!!

    I looked at the illustration - the picture on the laptop screen appears to be some guy in a suit...

    Must be a Governing Body member pontificating about the bible - er, Watchtower dogma...

    They're falling all over themselves, trying to pull the Watchtower Corporation's revenue methods - er, "preaching" - into the 21st Century...

    What d'ya wanna bet it backfires on them??

    Took another look at it...

    The photograph of the cover art is on page 2, and the caption reads:

    "Preaching the good news in Brazilian Sign Language in the city of Rio de Janeiro in Comunidade da Rochinha"...
