My daughter knows computers

Post by Lucifer »

My 6 year old knows computers. Check this out:

Her: "I want a computer."
Me: "Do you want an Apple computer?"
Her: "No Daddy, I want a real computer."

Also:

Her: "I want to learn to program."
Me: "If I have any say in it, the first language you learn will be Python."
Her: "But Daddy, I'm almost in first grade!"

hehe I have three original MS-DOS 4.01 diskettes in the neat floppy disk covers (somewhat similar to hardshelled cd covers) they came with :D too bad one of the covers is slightly broken *remind himself to copy those before they turn to dust*

probably the most valuable floppies I own lol

ranks up there with my 4-year-old.

I installed MAME on a computer he uses, and he's figured out that in fighting games, if you put in enough credits for a 2-player game, he'll win :)

In Mario Brothers, he was so excited the first time that he cleared the first level :)

Me: I'm going to set this computer up as an X terminal.
Her: But daddy, I thought you were giving me my own computer!
