I don't use ours much as I have my own macbook, but my kids use it all the time. My husband is techie though. We have downloaded a ton of games which the kids play. My husband reads books off it, amazon kindle, ibooks. My husband has uploaded TV programs and movies for our 3 yr old to watch, he knows how to work it more than me! We also have netflix, facebook. My husband has synced it with our apple tv so we have all our photos on it too. That worked out really great when we went back to the UK for the summer. You can do everything a computer does except only can have O. email account registered to it. I initially thought we wouldn't use it much, but it has definitely become the younger kids laptop. I don't think apple anticipated that use, but anyone I know who has O. their kids use it way more than they do!
