[QUOTE="tinyteddy, post: 213547"] I can answer some of your questions. 1. The USB modem is just for dial up internet, the macbook has a seperate ethernet port. So unless you use dial up, you don't need to buy it. All you need is a cheap ethernet cord. Also it has built in airport extreme for wireless internet (you can use it if your campus has wireless hot spots or at a Borders, B&N etc) 2. It might be more expensive, but if you have no experience installing RAM, then buy it from Apple and let them put it in. At least it saves you some hassle. 3. I've never done video editing on any mac before, so I have no idea. 4. If its a DVDRW drive you can both read dvds (R) and write them (W). "Write" is another term for burn. As far as buying anything else...you might want a nice wireless mouse if you're not used to trackpads (personally I hate trackpads lol) Hope this helps.... :headphone [/QUOTE]
