I'm with Jim. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/scholar.gif[/img] I've used (and continue to use) various Macs over the years (yikes...it's been over two decades for me too). Problems have been minimal to say the least. My I-Mac is bulletproof. Ditto with my I-Book. My daughter finally wore out her own I-Book after a gazzillion years in University and a bunch more using it for work. Let's just say it was used and abused. The hinges finally wore out [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I don't think you can go wrong.
