Qimo4kids d/l distro


been given an old PC that I would like to set up for my grandkids using this distro. Wherever I try to download it from I just get taken to the same site and I cannot find any working servers there to d/l from.

I have installed it from synaptic on my pc but it is downloaded as a number of apps. I really wanted it as "their very own os" booted from their "own" PC.

i am more than happy to buy it if anyone can tell me where to get it. Thanks

The Argentina link on this page still works: http://www.qimo4kids.com/download/

But be aware it is based on an obsolete Ubuntu release, so your grandkids will be using an operating system with no security/stability support.

Thanks snowpine. They will not be given access to the internet so it should not be too bad and its only for a short time, depending on how much interest they show and their attitude towards learning. Thanks again.
