Hello there Romana! Seems like you've got an ideal geeky family there. I am fascinated at your email. It would be nice to read some more real life stories like yours. God Bless!

I pointed out necessary safe windows usage apps, and told her no tech support from home:) 14yo has kubuntu laptop, nearly 12yo xubuntu laptop. both love them. (interesting aside, when upgrading 12yo's boxen, offered to put kde on like her sister - she prefers xfce.) miss 5 and master 3 LOVE gcompris. on mum's laptop (fvwm minimalist customised ubuntu), or on dad's freebsd box. my 5yo started school this year, and came home complaining about how hard the computers were at school to use. "stupid windows" she said:) yay for raising the geek kid level! r:) -- -- Romana Branden Nothing ... well, that's something. <a href="http://timelady.com/blog/">http://timelady.com/blog/</a> -- ubuntu-women mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-women@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-women@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-women">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-women</a> </blockquote> </div>
