What could be the best way to introduce the world of computers to a kid, let’s say of 6 years old, so that he learns to handle it like a toy and stops dreading it like some esoteric, arcane and recondite machine from some eldritch, enigmatic, cryptic and phantasmal world ?


Yeah, get him an old console with a donkey kong cartridge or something to boot.
Nah, it must be a PC, with broken audio socket on the motherboard, PCI soundcard with no drivers as a replacement, an IDE CD drive, only SATA sockets on the motherboard, and a stack of CDs with hundreds of DOS games on each. Plus $10 to buy an IDE-to-SATA adapter.
Yeah apparently!
