Rethinking Kids & Computers

Of course, it remains to be proven that the introduction of technology will magically equate to a more efficient learning environment for children - third world or otherwise.

In fact, it may be worth considering whether computers could actually be a barrier to young kids learning to think creatively, solve problems, and develop strong real-world social skills.

Access to Wikipedia is HUGE

Access to the worlds largest encyclopedia alone makes it worthwhile. The rest is parenting keeping them off the porn and game sites.

Advantage MSFT !

The big Softie gives us OS support for like 13+ years...in the meantime , Apple makes you throw everthing out and start over every FEW years.
Heck , Apple even copied our PC platform (even though they used to bash it) And Safari browser is now known as Swiss-cheese. This from the company who`s turtle-necked stooge touts Apple as the secure products company.

back to your cave

Go back to your cave troll. The only reason I'm bothering to
respond to your nonsense is to point out to others (who may not
have had that first cup yet) that there isn't one lick of truth in
*anything* you posted and it has absolutely no connection at all to
the article. It's all BS obviously spewed out of a paid M$ troll.
