RE: [seul-edu] Sorry--apparently a misprint

Hmmm, I may buy one of them just to find out.  I thought it was odd that the
add listed nearly every common OS you can think of (except BeOS) including
PDA's.  Including PDAs in the listing is what clued me off that something
was amis.

I wish someone would come out with quality kids games, especially younger
pre-school aged kids.  I built a computer for my girlfriend in July and
convinced her to install Linux, she loves it, however she really wants kids
software for it.  VMWare has solved that problem for the most part but it
would be much better if they ran natively.
