My 11yo boy got a Windows 8.1 laptop and on a whim decided to also install Ubuntu Linux. He did so without my help and is now learning about shell scripting. The Linux community and the Ubuntu Linux people deserve credit for making installation easier, but I'm proud of my boy too. The smaller children like Linux because they think the penguin logo is cute smile.
