For what it's worth, same here. Also, I don't think it's a good idea to force a learning environment or an OS on a child. IMO it works best if you let the child discover and be a guide, not "thou should not use Windows". Not so remarkable that the rant moves from an extremistic teaching environment to an extremistic world view. From hating everything that's not Linux and idolizing the CLI to hating everything that is different in general. -- John Bokma j3b Hacking & Hiking in Mexico - http://johnbokma.com/ http://castleamber.com/ - Perl & Python Development -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
