Cool! A new kid-tough computer for the kid!

This is what I'm thinking. Every kid who wants a computer of their own will beg for one of these units! Until now I have been trying to keep a MacII system running for my step-daughter (10 years old). I could grab up one of these puppies, run a ether cable up to it, and plug her right into my lan. Since I already run Linux on my boxen here it would be a nice easy addition.
These console games are rugged and are designed to take the beating that kids can dish out. And at 392 bogoMIPS that is more than my wife's celeron-266! Think of the savings I'll have by loading that thing up with Linux games rather than having to buy every single stinking piece of software at console game prices!
Yeah, thats the ticket!

Forget it. Never mind. No way is this thing worth $475. Ok, I get a new Dual AthalonMP, wife gets the Dual PII, kid gets the Celeron-266

Re: WHAT IS THIS
We were helping a buddy clean up his garage and he came across a small toolbox. He opened it up and pulled out some small gizmo with an electric plug and a handle and a little round head. He said "What is this?" To which I replied "Fuck if I know." Then he pulled out this weird crescent shaped knife with a T-shaped handle and said "how about this?" I said "Some kind of knife?"
That whole thing still gives me nightmares. Was our buddy a maniac? Were they cops? What the hell was that weird shit doing in his garage?
Oh well.

If the obvious were a snake it would have enveloped you with it's limbless tube-like torso long ago.
The key word here is 'Electric'.
Imagine if you will, a tired lazy old hag that has nothing to do but waste away her useless life watching t.v. and eating pastries.
Now imagine a youthful, vivacious, whip of a teenager, just becoming aware of the world arround him and his role in it.
Exactly what the New Gestapo fears the most, unbridled, raw emotion. And power.
Their question, `how do we stop this?` their answer, remove the LEGS, the LIFEBLOOD of the youth of America. Promote laziness and new role models based on aged Bavarians and you have yourself the recipe for world domination.
Long day at school? Ride your lazy machine.
Long night on drugs? Ride your lazy machine.
Any reason at all? Ride your lazy machine.
And when Joe Hat launches the nukes and the EMP's ruin your ELECTRIC leg-crippling-mobiles you won't have the ability to run from Dr. Zurich and his blood guns( they have them, my friend saw one in Canada when he was a green beret) and you and your family will fall victim to one of the most obvious scams in history next to JFK.
