  That person is presenting the classical symptoms of clueless user whose
brain functions get diminished by 90% when in the precense of a computer.

  One typical symptom is the complete inability to read and understand
simple error or message dialogs. Typically from a message containing 12
words they see 2 and make all kinds of weird conclusions based on these
2 isolated random words.

  The symptoms are worsened when in precense of a knowledgeable person who
is trying (futilely) to teach them how to use the computer. The most typical
(and annoying) thing they will do is, when presented with a dialog with a
simple message and one single button ("Ok"), to ask "what do I do now?"
The mere precense of the knowledgeable person makes them completely blind
to the message in the dialog. They see random symbols which could as well
be chinese kanji.
