| Anyone who trashes on a company because "their computer broke" is obviously not so informed anyway. No computer is immune from problems. No hardware is completely fail-safe. With any computer you buy you take the risk of it "breaking".

That concern is mostly over, with bootcamp you can run both OS's side by side. Besides, for her purposes a Mac would do just fine. (Photoshop, MoH, WoW, and Word Processors are all avaliable for OS X.
A computer is like buying a peice of furniture, some people could care less about what it looks like so long as it's comfortable, while others care about the way it looks. Don't judge someone on how much they know just because they want a nice looking computer.
Also, if anyone plans on coming back with some long winded PC is better than Mac crap(or vice versa), please don't. It's been discussed to death around here, and it's a useless and repetitive argument.
If you can't afford a Mac(like your daughter wants, I AM NOT suggesting a mac) then I'd go for a Dell. Regardless of what anyone says, Dells are decent, affordable and most colleges offer discounts.
