(or simply get her that cute, new iMac just out this week and forget about the above -- Macs are just so much more secure) Too bad they didn't think of putting in a TV tuner and remote control into their latest iMacs =( = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ ___ Do you Yahoo!?

Hm, what's 'they' in reference to? the colleges? Almost all of the major colleges here in So. Cal have either ethernet and/or wireless coverage on campus and in their dorms. it's almost impossible not to find a connection nearby, and the wireless radiation shows up as bright as can be on http://www.wifimaps.com/ Just drop in your zipcode and you'll be surpised how many wifi spots are available -- also, how much radiation you're getting. don't be suprised if the wireless keyboard & mouse you use + cell phone + microwave + wifi spots + etc. all lead to shorter lifespans in the future folks =) anyways, on campus, they're pretty much giving you an open pipe to the internet, and of course, the most popular applications kids use aren't for research and studies, but the usual music & movie downloading, chat, porn, and other fun ways to waste time. if you do have wifi on campus itself, it may be worth it to get a libretto or a PDA with WIFI card so you can easily access everything online w/o carrying heavy gear about. = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ ___ Do you Yahoo!?

Exactly right - free (well, sort of) ISP via ethernet at her school. So thank you all for the recommendations, but free is the cheapest price of all!
