I am offering my older software, much of it suitable and educational for preschoolers, to him . Much of this stuff I have already tried to sell on ebay, with poor results. If they are going to make it available to little kids who might not have a computer, I am with that. Story CD's,Rugrats game, Reader Rabbit, and just all kinds of games. My daughter learned to read on the 7600. Microsoft office and Powerpoint . Where did I get those? I don't even remember. Excuse me if I hold back Riven. Take it please. Sounds like a reasonable thing. Jim
