Actually, it might give students a real incentive to tinker: "hey, you might make thousands of dollars on the App Store". Parents? Spend $100 for a curious kid's birthday to get a dev kit, it would be a great investment. Especially if it takes away from time they'd spend doing passive things like watching TV.
- spc476 17y agoBack in 1985, I remember bugging my Mom to get me the Radio Shack Assembler for the Color Computer and a book on Assembly language programming and I wouldn't be surprised if she spent around $60 or so back then. Using this calculator ( http://www.measuringworth.com/uscompare/ http://www.measuringworth.com/uscompare/ ) that works out to between $100 to $200 in 2009 dollars (depending upon which inflation scale is used).
