    Since you are in Zambia, and may have financial constraints regarding purchase
    of software, have you considered sticking with Linux? There is a huge library
    of free software available for Linux on the internet that is constantly
    growing. As others have pointed out, you can just install a Windows disk and
    it will gladly wipe out your Linux installation and replace it, but you might
    wish you'd done otherwise, down the road. Kids are pretty smart, and they'll
    have no problem learning Linux. And with Linux, they will be able to grow
    their skills without financial constraints.
