I'm a firm believer and always have been that there aren't all that many things that you should not express to children in an age-appropriate manner, and as a parent, that is your job - to be discerning as to whether or not your child can handle the information, provided you have the ability to express yourself in that age-appropriate way.

It's definitely true that there are a lot of the devices we used on 'Star Trek,' that came out the imagination of the writers, and the creators that are actually in the world today.

I want to live in an America where we are able to marshal all the resources we have at our disposal and that we - people like me, and companies like Apple and Intel and others - can make it our business to put a tablet computer in the hands of every single kid in America. Every single kid.

I have always been a fan of 'Star Trek.' I love Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future.

As long as we are engaged in storytelling that moves the culture forward, it doesn't matter what format it is.

Kids are sponges. They will emulate what they see and what they're exposed to.

We have an amazing advantage right now in that we have developed technology that is so sexy, so engaging for kids.
