Devices *not* running GNU (and therefore Sugar desktop) are likely devices not in the control of its owner. Underlying question is therefore if it matters that the device "in the hands" of those kids is in their own control or not. Only if it does not matter is it relevant to consider throwing away the work done developing Sugar-atop-a-POSIX-system and instead invest only in developing Sugar-atop-a-web-browser. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
