Teach them to be more careful, jeez! I'm a teenager with a netbook and it's surviving beautifully! I agree with the post above pretty much completely. Wireless cutting out is 99% of the time a failure on the router's end, not the reciever. For its size, im not suprised it's "tightly constructed" to be entirely honest.

You are apparently computer challenged as the procedure to enter safe mode is the same on all windows XP systems. Holding down the F8 key while posting will bring up the windows options menu and all you have to do is select start in safe mode. This has not changed in years. As for the virus have you heard of Norton Anti-virus (duh!) I am not sure what you expected, the whole purpose of a netbook is light weight and a small footprint, this means plastic. And by the way, after raising 4 kids I can assure you that nothing is teenager proof.
