Laptop Computer advice needed

[Robert]

SFG's thread about digital libraries reminded me of this thread.

So, for an update:
My son purchased a Mac iBook G4. He's very happy with it so far. It connected seamlessly to our home pc network and internet through an Airport Express. Will have to wait and see how it holds up in the long-run when school starts in September and it's really put to the test.

Thanks to all who responded with their opinions and advice.

Very good choice. I understand Mac is still a very high quality computer, and you should have fewer problems with worms and viruses because most are written for windows based machines.
