[QUOTE="wcarr3, post: 879141, member: 29252"] I'd like to also suggest the 13" Macbook Pro. Nice machine that will do what you son would like it to do. I would suggest you and he visit an Apple Store to mess around with what they have. The 13" looks kind of small at first, but its the perfect size for me. I'm currently in grad school myself and I would suggest just going ahead and purchasing MS Office. There might be a small learning curve with learning the new Mac version of Office, but with your son having MS Office, there won't be any compatibility issues with papers and other documents that he will have to submit. I'm pretty sure the MS Office suite is the standard format of choice most university, it may be worth it to double check with your son's school. Good luck to the both of you. [/QUOTE]
