I had to explain the save button to my 9 year old about a week ago. And then I found myself explaining what a floppy disk was. Tonight I'll ask him if he knows what that is a picture of. I'll be impressed if he remembers. If he fails the check, imma gonna launch into a lecture on boot disks, games, and batch files. Wish me luck!

Teach him how to manually specify his interrupts and to tune his extended RAM so he can play games.

After he masters that, get him an MFM or RLL hard drive and teach him to low level format it and set the best interleave.
