He uses a Mac at school and Windows at home (unless he can get me to move from the computer) and doesn't even see it as an issue. I doubt your child will have much difficulty using Windows. I understand that this is a Mac forum and I am not trying to push Windows (I made the switch) but just pointing out that children seem to be born with a mouse in their hand, no preconcieved ideas and a drive to explore (no puns intended). There a kazillion parental control software programs for Windows if that is of concern and you can readily purchase one and still have change in your pocket.</p></blockquote><p></p>
