Japanese kids can experience the wonder and joy of working on a PC assembly line

KidZania, an "interactive city made for children" in Tokyo, is opening a new section called "PC Factory Worker" where kids can "learn about the computer's structure and functions, enjoy the process of manufacturing, and deepen your understanding of computers". The kiddies will "process a PC customer order sheet, pick the correct parts, and begin PC assembly", fitting "a real CPU, memory, graphics card, etc" and check that it boots. Not sure what happens with the computer once it's assembled via child labour in a potemkin village Foxconn factory, but it opens later this month and would absolutely be something I would ask my parents to do if I was 8 years old.
