If you're not doing any heavy-duty processing, an i5 is fine fine fine!<br /><br />In the Mac vs. Windows debate, I can add something to the conversation. I use an older MacBook for work and it's not hard to get used to - it's far easier to switch from Windows to Mac than Mac to Windows. Most of my friends who use Macs simply cannot function on a Windows-based machine. So many peripherals and software are being designed to work with both Windows and Macs rather than one or the other, it might be worth a look when you find yourself completely overwhelmed by the Windows world.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843459906469325667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-33373998475642072002013-01-19T15:51:52.926-05:002013-01-19T15:51:52.926-05:00MacBookPro, either 13 or 15 inch screen will work....MacBookPro, either 13 or 15 inch screen will work.

I've considered Apple off and on (my Lord, I used to use a MacIntosh at one of my college internships) and I just don't like being pigeonholed into using only their stuff and buying it from them. That and I'm an old dog.

The prongs are so damn cheesy that any torsion on the cable causes them to bend slightly and over time they WILL break. The parts & labor aren't expensive but having to leave your business laptop at the shop for weeks is.<br /><br />I would have gone with another type of Windows-based computer after the first Dell's input broke, but just talking to the local computer guru had my head spinning ala Linda Blair.<br /><br />Good luck out there.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843459906469325667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-4757733812589380962013-01-18T23:41:10.474-05:002013-01-18T23:41:10.474-05:00Let her shop for the computer.
