The Apple Notebook seems like a good quality laptop that will last a few years. I want to spend about $1000 – $1400.

It would make life a lot easier. Can do assignments/keep a diary/use skype if pay for a monthly internet account etc.

Great for travelling. I have looked at second hand/reconitioned but would prefer a new one. Feel more secure since it is a reasonable investment. Probably buy a nice case to carry it, inbuilt web cam to do cams with friends/family.

Nearly have the money. The government here in Australia is giving people $900 so I may spend it on the lap top but will see. It isn’t a huge priority right now.

In about 6 months I would like to get one.
