I think it would be a swell idea, I say go for it.
It would teach them vauleable computer skills, confience with computers,
esteem towards computers, comperations, mangement, and a whole sleg of
other things. To learn computers you must use computers, the more you
use, the more learn, basically. More and more computers are going to be
used, everywhere, I think they should get these skills early, and in there
furture they will be better off.
If you teach these kinda linux know they will be more computer literate
by the age 16 then %85 of the adults living in the united states.
I wish I was could of leaned linux (err unix) when I was in school.
Teach them this now and they will have bright furtures.
