Just a warning about the progranism think. If you, like me, are a bit curious and just download and run everthing interesting you find. Do do that, run it on a system that you won't mind crashing, and run it in a restricted environment.
Every proccess spawns two new processes, and if you change the delay to 5 secounds instead of 30 secounds (default), you'll have your memory and soon your harddrive filled, within a few minutes.
(ever tried walking your non-technical wife through a system rescue? even with knoppix it isn't pretty.)
Ever tried walking your (absolutely) non-technical mom through a system restart? Just telling her to hold CTRL, ALT and push F1 to get to a getty, without letting go of CTRL og ALT before pushing F1, can be a hurdle. It's very funny to see people who haven't been using a computer before (very rare these days) trying to comply when you say "Hold control, alt and push f 1". Most of them don't even manage to keep holding CTRL and ALT while pushing F1, if they at all pushes F1 and not F and 1.
After that trying to say your 18 character password on the phone is pretty hard to get right, if you don't get the answer "nothing happends when i push the buttons."
It would be really nice to have an alternative which where directed more towards an older crowd. More sensor input/outputs, other sensor types like temp., GPS, up/down, radar, or whatever.
Do you think there is/would be a market for something like that?

Do you mean at the moment, or in general?
In general, that depends. If a security hold has been found which Microsoft haven't yet fixed, then it might very well be possible.
At the moment I am not sure, but not as far as I know.
Damn sad to see another great show go away. In case you don't know about it Angel Season 6 Petition
Does anyone know of an alternative to mindstorms?
