[QUOTE="Michael Hale, post: 742818, member: 58327"] Unless there is a need to burn DVD's, get the MacBook with combo drive. Don't forget to use a student discount which drops the price approximately $100. Apple just announced subtle speed/chipset upgrades to this line. I made the switch a couple of years ago and am typing this on a 13.3" black MacBook. If the family is a fan of MS Office the student version is available as well. Otherwise, iWorks works just fine (need to purchase since you are provided a trial version only on the computer). I love mine! Good sources for purchase are MacConnection and Amazon, in addition to the Apple Store, and dependant on your location may not require payment of sales tax. Great gift! Leopard comes with built-in Boot Camp in case she needs to load a copy of Windows for specific software. [/QUOTE]
