I think this generation's equivalent is probably iPhone.
At a holiday dinner yesterday, a friend's kid (11) wanted to know how to make games for his iPod Touch. The conversation ended at "well, you need to buy a Mac, first."
The costs are pretty high, even by North American standards. My first computing system cost less than $200, I think. Getting started with iPhone development will set one back $1500.
- tlrobinson 17y agoSure, but I didn't buy a graphing calculator to start programming, I already had one for school. Many students already have Macs and iPhones. If I had thought I could make lots of money (by teenagers' standards) selling graphing calc apps then I probably would have become a hermit.
