My recommendation on the PC side is Sony. While they're a bit spendy, they're great machines and places like ubid.com have good deals on them. I have a Vaio desktop that I've used for years without problems, My wife liked my machine so much that we got her a Vaio as well. We've got a couple of Vaio laptops here that we've used for testing for a looonggg time and have very few problems with them.
Along with everyone else, I'd make sure it had a dual-layer DVD burner, a Wireless 802.11b/g card, and a decent graphics card in it. If you want her to have a Mac, get a Mac, though. Mac hardware is good stuff if you can afford it (I can't however afford either at the moment :-( ) I hate both MS and Apple equally, so I have no bias, and therefore no need to fan the flame of the platform war, other than pure amusement. :-) Allen _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
