> Get that urchin her own computer.
Better yet, get the urchin an eMate! One of the suggestions I got
from another person on the list for general development ideas was more
educational and kid-oriented software. Abeit, this might be easier on
a larger form-factor emulated Newton ("emu-Newton"? "EmuTon"?)
> Maybe get her a couple of O'Reily books.
On Cocoa.. Maybe she'll start a software house before entering high
school. (Newtonscript and C++ would be better, but O'Reilly doesn't
have those book yet.. Nobody hear knows anyone at O'Reilly do they?
[This idea would *only* work if the Newton community got a LOT bigger,
and sustainable into the future as a "respected platform" though])
