And friends don't let friends do PCs.

Hi Phil

I'd suggest an iBook - it doesn't sound like she is doing anything that a Mac can't do - and it can probably do it better :-)
She'll be well under 2K if she gets a 12" model.

Hiya,

A friend of mine is moving overseas and wishes to buy a new PC notebook to take with her. Her budget is around the $2000 mark, although she'd love to spend less if possible.

Intended use: general personal use - storing digital photos, sending email, web browsing, etc. Nothing real fancy. Must have an internal CD burner.

An important requirement: international warranty coverage, as she will be travelling throughout Europe.

She's not a computer expert at all, hence she will buy one here before leaving so that she can have a friend of hers set it up for and and transfer her stuff from her old notebook.

If anyone's got any suggestions or advice on what to buy, it would be extremely appreciated! She leaves in a few days and is starting to get a leeeeeeeeeeeedle bit stressed about it all.



Regards,
Phil
