To a child, it’s the perfectly formed. The interface isn’t Windows, but mimics it in many ways, with useful simplification. At the top of the screen are tabs saying Internet, work, learn, play, games and settings. Other tabs include shortcuts to sites like Wikipedia and Google..

“Work” includes an office suite. A built-in webcam plus the Internet phone program Skype make video chatting a possibility. The wireless connection is good. You’ll save a ton on an adult-sized machine and needn’t worry about spyware and the light yet robust design means your child won't develop scoliosis carrying it about.
