I need to figure out some really effective ways to use the computers (not this year as we only have 1-1/2 weeks left of school) as part of the literacy/numeracy/topic etc etc programmes. If it were only me there would be no problem as i use computers all the time for almost everything - but having to break it down for kids is actually quite hard.

We haven't had any problems with explorer complaining of more than one instance running but we have had issues with movie making/editing software. Despite these issues it has expanded our children's access to computers in general and for low processer/ram requirements like web browsing, word processing and simple games it is fantastic... a great money saver too!!
