| Kiddix Computing has come up with a Linux-based operating system designed 
| especially for children aged 5-10.  
| 
| [...]
| 
| The same kids who were puzzled by Windows XP picked Kiddix up right away. 
| Also, it's supposed to be an introduction to computers -- you can always move 
| your kids up to Gentoo or Ubuntu after they've gotten the hang of things or 
| if they outgrow the simple interface of Kiddix.

| If you own an older computer (Pentium 2 or newer) and have a few
| hours free one weekend you can build your children a great computer
| so that they can play educational games and do their school work.
| Now you can finally have your computer back.

| The Beauty of it lies where there are no preconceptions or judgement 
| passed on Ubuntu. she just uses it. there is no comparing... or 
| complaining about not having support. She is only 5 and she can 
| use linux... in fact my wife has failed to find an alternative on
| other operating systems that can attract my daughter.
