Article: [senit] front end for standalone PC

His own laptop/computer? - if time = money, then it would soon pay for
itself!  - could be second hand if he is using a simple range of
programs

hi a student (autistic,P3-4)is benefiting from ICT at
home (programs like switchit weather, with mouse or
spacebar) yet periodically crashes the family PC (not
sure if its xp or vista) by clicking on everything and
opening 30+programs at same time and accessing files
on c drive etc. 
 I remember that RM Classmate? used to solve the
latter problem in school some years ago on win98.
Is it still available for xp & vista? would it also
stop multiple program opening? Ranger solo is an
alternative but RM classmate might be simpler? Any recommendations for
this sort of scenario? david
