Qimo 4 Kids (pronounced "kim-oh", as in "eskimo")〔(【引用サイトリンク】work= )〕 is a child-friendly desktop environment built entirely with free software. Qimo comes pre-installed with educational games for kids: TuxPaint, eToys, GCompris, Tuxmath, and Tuxtyping. Large colorful icons help young users navigate easily. It is "designed for early elementary school aged children. Qimo is based on Xubuntu, using Xfce and is designed to be visually appealing for kids." The fact that Qimo is based on Xubuntu, helps provide low hardware requirements: minimum of 256MB of memory to run from the CD, or 192MB to install. At least 6 GB of hard drive space and a 400 MHz or faster CPU is needed.〔 Qimo currently uses LTS Lucid Lynx. ==2.0== In May 2010, Qimo 2.0 was released.〔("Qimo 2.0 is now available! - Desktop Operating System for Kids" )〕 ;Differences between Qimo & Edubuntu * Qimo was designed to be a standalone home computer for kids * Edubuntu was designed for networked classroom computer use * Qimo will run from a LiveCD * From October 2008 to October 2009, Edubuntu required an existing Ubuntu installation. Edubuntu is available in a live medium, but only on a DVD, as its contents will not fit on a CD anymore. * Qimo and Edubuntu are working to bring the Qimo games and artwork as an installable option within Edubuntu 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Qimo 4 Kids」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
