Two responses to that:
(a) Few people 40yo and older (that means me) played computer
games when they were young, but we somehow were able to learn
how to when we got older. Thus, my kids will learn that you
can play on a PC.
(b) My 6.5yo likes to play xnethack, when he thinks about it, and
I'm not working (my play PC is right next to my work PC).
