The ONLY Star Trek series that can be released in Hi Def is the ORIGINAL SERIES. That show was shot and finished on film. It won't be widescreen, but the masters are on film so hi def resolution is supported.
However, Next Gen, DS9, Voyager and most of Enterprise was SHOT on film, but edited and finished on NTSC VIDEO (in fact TNG was the first show ever to do this). That means the master tapes for these shows are all 525 line video and they will never look better than they do on DVD. It is physically impossible to release them in hi-def.
Enterprise switched over to 16:9, but it was not actually finished in hi def until late in the game.
The movies can all be hi def, except for (sadly) the new edition of ST: The Motion Picture. The special edition director's cut was only finished on NTSC and can never be upscaled to HDTV. Only the original theatrical version can be re-scanned to a higher resolution.

The program that my wife is getting my kids involved with has a surprising number of kids in this area. They take field trips, and other group activities with other homeschoolers. Where we live, its a rural setting, not deliverence, but not quite a suburban area. There won't be as much interaction with public/private school students unless my kids decide to take soccer or some other little league sports. I am concerned that they may not get good exposure to some activites eg. organized music and theatrics, but I see the benefits outweighing the negatives.
I would think that games like Empire Earth, Alpha Centauri, and Rise of Nations would work well for your situation. I belive you can also slow the gameplay down (I don't know how the "headmouse" works, plus the extent of your disabilty).
Hope that helps...

Does energy = mass times the speed of light (squared) apply?
I guess YMMV applies...
There is a lot of time, effort, and money involved if you want to do it right, but the amount of sacrifice is up to you.
It's all about how importent your kids are to you.
Note to the grammer natzies... No, I will not be teaching my kids. But my college grad wife will be.
Flaws in games do add character IMHO, but some flaws like "wall hacks" sometimes ruin multiplayer games.
Yes. 2000 Pro. But its locked up as tight as windows gets...

Is it possible to recode firefox to work on the PSP without having to compile a linux distro for it?
Is that a server in your pocket, or are you happy to see me?
What is this "daylight" you speak of?
