    Abstract: The computer is enhanced to include software processes for detecting the contents of data to be displayed and, responsive thereto, for changing the user interface selected for display and use. These processes determine which of a plurality of possible user interfaces shall be loaded into the computer memory for employment on the display for user interaction therewith so that, for example, functionally rich user interfaces will be employed for adult use of a given data load, but simplified user interfaces may be employed for the same data when a child desires to use the system. The entire user interface is changed based on data type or content as compared with a register of desired user interfaces for differing types or contents of data to be displayed.
