Rudedog,

<< BTW my son is 8 years old and set up the remote desktop himself. >>

Your kids are amazing. I'm attempting to teach my 15 month old daughter to be interested in computers and am having limited success. I set up an old laptop with DVD playing software and she watches her favorite videos for as much as a half hour without getting bored. We also bought a software program for 18 months and older which she likes and can interact with by banging on the keyboard randomly (ie. any keys hit cause certain actions).

The biggest problem is that she has a habit of picking at the keys. Her fingers are so small that she can pry up the keys (not easily, but two keys have broken already).

Anyone know the trick to fixing the keys on a Dell laptop? It's a real pain.

Dave
