Maybe in about 10 years time, or longer, you'll find out. It might be that these turn out to be a barely remembered oddity, or alternatively they might make the new/next generation of it-types go all misty eyed in the same way as many here do about zx81's, speccy's or Beebs.

Seems to me it's worth a shot at giving kids an easier route to poking about under the shiny graphical eye candy...
