some good points to consider BigV, I was talking with a friend who has teenage kids and the 'spend as little as possible since they'll only lose/break it anyway' argument resonated with him too.

I'm beginning to accept that Laptops are pretty much dipsoable on a 3 year cycle, trying to spend a little more on a faster processer to get a longer life is a fallacy since the battery will go, posibly the screen, keyboard get damaged etc. anyway. sigh.

So for daughter somehing basic will be fine, she will principally be buying with her own money anyway, another summer of odd jobbs will put her well in the market.

For monster, I don;t hink any mere silicon, processor can mutlitask like she can, how are those quantum computers soming along?
