You guys are usually really good at locating things, and most of you probably go shopping a lot more than I do...So, I could use your help

Ash needs a computer...I don't wanna spend $500 for a REAL computer that he'd destroy (as he's attempting to do with THIS one, which is WHY I'm trying to locate him one of his own)...I have to find a toy computer, that looks just like a real one with a keyboard, a screen (the bigger the better) and a mouse...NOT the laptop kind, unless it's really big (regular computer-sized screen and keyboard) and has a mouse, and/or is just too cool to pass up (but still a fairly big one)

With lights, sounds and MUSIC...This kid LOVES music...Ever seen a 1 year-old headbang?...It's awesome, lol

I really don't want to buy it online (don't wanna add shipping and handling costs to it), but it seems there should be SOMETHING at a store around here...

If you guys have seen ANYTHING like this, anywhere that you have been, or if you own one for your kids, PLEASE let me know where to look

We have all of the regular stores around here:

Wal-Mart
KBs
KMart
Sams
Target
Value City
ToysRUs
EB
Circuit City
Best Buy
Meijer
Funco Land
Game Stop
Biggs

And tons more that I'm sure I've missed


Can you help?

Get him a cardboard box and some crayons and let him make his own computer. It will be good for his imagination.

I think any parent that does a good job will at some point or another be hated by their kids.


;)

I know I hated mine for a while.

i thought this would be a no brainer ?

Actually...The year before last, the big boys (Alex 12, Jordan 7) wanted chainsaws for Christmas...We were going to get them and remove the chainblades...BUT, we read that the casing gets hot, so we had to tell them 'no'...They were very disappointed...They wanted to duel in the backyard with them...lol...Could you imagine the noise?

The one Alex was going to get was black and red with flames and fangs on it

The one Jordan was going to get was green and purple with a dragon on it

I can't find any pictures of them now:mad: ...They were really cool

ohhhh computers..

hmm

this company makes electronic learning devices .. some computer based ..

http://www.vtech.com/toys/index.phpThanks for the link...I've checked those out...I couldn't find one that was very much like a real computer, although they DO make excellent educational toys...

Remember a few years back when they made the REAL Hot Wheels computers?...I actually WOULD buy one of those online (since they don't make them anymore)...That would be absolutely perfect, but I could only find THIS one (and the girl says she doesn't even know if it works, which means it probably doesn't...AND...It's filthy) :
