So, comuputers for kids is on my mind today. Should kids have their own computers? With prices dropping, a Windows laptop is easily obtained at the same price as a game system. And a computer is so much more educational.
But computers for kids require much more adult supervision and maintenance, and I'm not sure if I am ready for that.
I also am a big fan of Apple - not sure if I would go for Windows again. But a Mac is not in the same price range as Windows.
And then there is the issue of laptop or desktop. A desktop is more easily managed because kids can't move it around as easily. So parents have an easier job of supervising internet usage.
Right now my computer is getting a workout, and short of setting up a sign up sheet for computer time - it looks like I will need to come up with an alternate solution.
