Yes well ... I'd love to have the time but my kids are expecting to see Dad this summer ;-)
Are they old enough to code :)
'fraid not though the two oldest have done quite a bit with the lego mindstorms stuff. They are 8 and 10. The closest they com to Linux is running a few of the games and they've used Star office if Dad has left the dual boot PC in SUSE. They have very little problem tranferring their skills between Windows/RISC OS/Linux Maybe I should start them with something. What would you recommend? I'd go for BBC BASIC V simply because I use it a lot but I realise that's limiting them. I have trouble converting to C and Java probably because of my BASIC upbringing. -- Colin McQueen : Using an Acorn StrongARM Risc PC Web Domain : http://www.mcqueen.uk.net/ BSc Zoology + Oceanography : PGCE : MSc in CBL/T
