Yeah.. kids are tougher than we tend to give them credit for. I got an Amiga 500 when I was 10 years old, try playing Carrier Command, Elite or something like that without a manual and no clue what any of the words mean :) We sometimes didn't get very far, or missed out on many aspects, but there was still so much we did get out of it, so we kept hanging on, and with everything we understood, other things became easier to understand. I basically learned English that way, once I got a dictionary, since the coolest and best games and applications generally were in English. I didn't even notice I was learning you might say, I was too busy stacking boxes to get the banana :D
