At the moment, our two daughters (7 and 9) share an old PC, but it’s creaking a bit and they often want to use it at the same time so end up on my laptop or my wife’s netbook.
I’ve got two old 17″ monitors from work, so want to set them up with a PC each. But I don’t want to spend a fortune so a couple of Raspberry Pi seem ideal. The monitors have DVI inputs, so I’ll be able to connect them to the HDMI port of a Pi.
I’m probably going to be able to borrow a Pi to play with before buying, but thought I’d sound out the nerds geeks on here beforehand as I know a few have them.
My kids do pretty much everything in a browser, so software shouldn’t be an issue. But, they need to be able to use certain things for it to be workable, and that’s what I wanted to check:

[*]Google Drive[/*]
[*]Moshi Monsters[/*]
[*]Bin Weevils[/*]
[*]You Tube[/*]
[*]Didi games[/*]
[/list]
Anyone got experience of using them in this way? Also, am I right in thinking I can just swap out memory cards if I want to use them for anything fun myself?
