I'm setting up a PCjr in my (nearly) seven year old's room for her to write stories on. An old DOS machine is the perfect choice:
- Dirt simple OS. I can hide almost everything about it by dumping it into the word processor when it boots up.
- 80x25 screeen. No windows to move around and play with. No icons to delete. Eetc.
- PCjr keyboard only has 62 keys .. not too intimidating.
I think I'm going to custom write a little text editor to make things simple, but before I head down that path does anybody have any suggestions for an easy to use text editor/word processor for a child?
