Looking For Kid-Friendly Laptop and Netbook SuggestionsI’m putting together a list of netbooks and notebooks that would be good to give to kids ranging from 7 – 14 as a “first laptop”. I have several netbooks designed for kids on my list, but wanted to ask the parents out there: what laptops or netbooks have you bought for or allowed your kids to use? Any models or brands you’d particularly suggest to other parents looking for a durable yet inexpensive computer for their kid?

This isn’t a laptop, but in fact it hasn’t been thrown out there before, the Alphasmart keyboards are really cheap, durable, and good for word-processing.
My 8 yr old has his own eee 900, and he has broken his less than I have mine. He really likes the base xandros on it
I would probably do the touchscreen mod if I were giving it to a kid much younger. I am planning on hooking the 3yr old up soon.
