My kids are getting mini PC’s for Christmas, preinstalled with Mint. They use tablets now, but I want to introduce them to the joys of keyboards and mice (and The Secret of Monkey Island). I hope they’ll like it, so that in the future they’ll stick to PC’s and laptops, which offer far more robust control by the end user.

Funnily enough my eldest is getting a laptop this Christmas. Arch Linux with a heavily locked-down environment (I’ve disabled WiFi on the non-root account, even). She’s just about to turn 7 – how old are yours?

6 and 7. For now, I’ll be monitoring their activity, and we’ll see whether they’ll need any locks. Probably internet filtering on the router.
