My computer auto-boots the CDROM, if I leave a CDROM in the drive. This would make the computer more child proof. Besides games, I think one should have AOL's AIM on the CDROM and have it autostart. With AIM and Firefox available, even young teenagers would find it hard to mess up a computer. They could surf the web all they wanted and never have to worry about viruses and spy-ware. If it had the full AOL software, that would even work for my grandmother. A no risk approach to getting on the internet.

I think your original message needs a wish list of games. Maybe some of your responders will make a list of great games.
