O/T: AJ

She just turned 3. I would introduce her to the computer and/or something like Leapster, but she does not slow down enough to see what the buttons will do. I swear I think she has ADD! LOL! On the weekends, I make sure I get her outside; just got her a soccer ball this last weekend, and she loves kicking it around. As she gets older, and starts to use electronics more, I can see the exercise thing being a struggle. As for books, I think she will take to them. We read to her every night before bed; she really looks forward to it.

Xbox 360 stuff: There is a high speed interface between the GPU and the 3 core CPU. The interface is similar to the HyperTransport standard for the AMD processors. We did the interface on the GPU side. It had a combined bandwidth of 10.8 GBytes/s, which comes in handy. I usually play Call of Duty 4 on my 1080p, and it doesn't miss a beat!

I recall reading about your 2-1/2 years old's schnanigans. Great story! We write things like that in a calenders for memories.

My daughter been making hand written tables since 4 years old. She took a bunch of her books and made a simple table with book title, author, and color of binding.

As a lark, I started up excel and she filled in cells and right from the start got a gist how to change font, color attributes better then I can after 20 years of use.

She is currently into making power point slides by the dozens at a time. I pretty rigid in terms of background fills and word art but no two slides look alike.
