Computers are rarely simplified to just email functionality these days.

For a Windows based PC, I recommend a VIA system. They are inexpensive, very small and simple desktops usually the size of a tissue box or smaller. Easy to set up, and run windows XP. They can also run Linux.

For Linux based systems, Jack PC by Etherfast makes a microcomputer capable of fitting into the wall like a phone jack. It runs on Windows CE, making it simpler and easier to use, and a 1.2 GHz x86 VIA processor.

Netbooks are now very common for simple mobile laptops, however they may be a bit more complex to use, as most lack a CD-ROM drive, and repair can be very difficult. They are however inexpensive, as low as $150.

Another alternative is to get a computer specifically for the elderly. Once company is working on a PC with an interface designed so that it's very easy to use. It comes with a simplified social network too so that all your relatives can easily share photos, etc. It's Linux based (though nowhere near as complex!) which means that viruses are not common.

Sort of: The ignition system has a very simple computer board in it called an ignition module. The alternator also has a simple computer board called an electronic voltage regulator. I do not think either of these is the type of computer you mean.
