PCs for Pee-Wees
By ERIC A. TAUB
 
PeeWee PC makes PCs for children: desktops and laptops that are rugged, include swivel and touch screens and come with software intended to protect children from the dangers of the Internet and the excesses of sitting in front of a screen for hours at a time.

Now the company is offering an inexpensive software version of some of its features: the $30 PeeWee Kit includes seven age-appropriate childrens’ games, plus PC security and adult monitoring software, all on a U.S.B. drive. A CD-ROM version with four games will also be available for $20.

The security software protects children against malicious Web sites, takes screen shots, limits time on the Web as well as the time spent gaming and using the PC in general, and allows the computer to be controlled remotely. The PC is also protected against changes to its operating system.

The PeeWee Kit, available this month, is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, and XP.
