I promise you that Microsoft is not promoting to children or their parents an idea that creating technology would be of any interest to them. That of course is why we have Microsoft, in fact. And why we should duly appreciate that fact. The *boys* at Microsoft have our best interests in mind. They are the providers. We only need to show our appreciation by consuming appropriately. All will be well. Art _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
