What type of computer system do you recommend for your students? Our daughter was accepted into the fashion and textile program for next fall, and we want to make sure she has the right computer for your college.

About the computer thing- I have no clue what kind of work is done in that major but I got a Macbook the first week of august and it works great. It is a laptop computer with 512MB RAM, 60GB hard drive, and 1.83GHz operating speed, and it comes with a remote so you can access videos, music, and photos from across a room(I'm not sure the maximum distance it will reach). This is my first Mac and I already like it more than a PC. I did not need to buy any virus software or anything of the sort which is very convenient because I won't have to update it to keep up with the school's network requirements- I can just plug in and go. The Macs are a bit expensive compared to most computers but after you have to buy virus software, and upgrade the computer to a point that it will function at a decent speed, the Macs end up being a bit cheaper or at least they did with the research i did.
