If your student would rather have a laptop that he or she can carry from the dorm to the lecture hall, library, and Internet cafĂ©, the MacBook (mmmmh)—available from $1,099 to $1,499—is your best bet. Despite its relatively light weight and low cost, its performance compares favorably to that of the MacBook Pro. Of course, the MacBook has a few disadvantages: its 13-inch screen may feel too cramped for some people, its graphics hardware is too weak for hard-core gaming, the low-end model can’t burn DVDs, and, as with any laptop, the MacBook is an easy target for thieves (macworld.com/1478).
