Depends on what you want to use it for. I bought my wife an iMac notebook. It is more like a "device" than a computer, it is engineered beautifully, never crashes and I never have to touch it. I got her Microsoft Office for Mac and she emails and prepares documents to he hearts content.

Absolutely useless if you want to do anything other than graphics, work processing and email/internet.
