textboxes are flexible. I think you could ask your students to implement
this functionality:
* word processor: bold, italics buttons, font size change, font face change
* word processor: search and replace
* word processor: simple mail merge
* chat: MW can read and write to a text file in a shared folder.
* bar chart plotter
* pie chart plotter

To save an attachment to your computer, PC users should right-click (Mac users, click and hold the mouse button) on the link and then choose 'save target as' from the pop-up menu. A window will then pop up in which you can choose a location for the file.
