<p>Quick note from experience: My son purchased the WM MyNotebook when he entered in fall 2006. He has gotten great service out of the computer. It had one hardware problem that was fixed almost instantly under the service contract. (I realize there’s a lot to be said for the Macs; I realize there are many less expensive options in the Windows world; but the MyNotebook option has worked out well for my son so far.)</p>
