Hello, Liam, and welcome to your new computer. 

Here are a couple of suggestions for what you can do with your new computer:

• Learn Ruby, a programming language; this tutorial is pretty good for kids / beginners
• Read about History on Wikipedia; I personally am a big fan of US Presidential History
• Check your Gmail account, and send an email to someone you know
• Read up on some financial goings on; economics is a blast

Please note, the computer is not just a TV with a keyboard attached.  

It is a tool for learning, for creating, for exploring the world (and universe!) around you. 

Use the computer to write software, music, stories; to paint pictures; to run calculations and algorithms; to communicate with your family and friends, and to grow as a person. 

If you need additional ideas on what to do with your new computer, or have run into some digital brick wall, let me know, and I'll help you through it. 

If you want to sit around and watch TV all day, I'll make you mow the lawn.  

Enjoy :-) 

Love, 

Dad
