That's a good suggestion, if you can find one (they are out-of-stock in most of the Walmarts around here) Some people may not realize that there are full sized laptops that are that cheap. Netbooks are great for portability, but you give up a lot for that, so aren't always the best choice if you don't really need something super-small and lightweight. On the flip side, you often have to really check about what features they really do need/want. One thing I would think kids in particular may want is integrated webcam/microphone for online chat/skype/etc. That's one thing you may not get in the really cheap laptops like the eMachines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
