[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 653992, member: 6198"] I would go with a lap top and you can get a good one from HP. I like HP customer service and their help and support. Best by far. I paid 600 Canadian funds for mine, and they have cheaper You can get a cordless mouse that has a ubs stick. make your recovery disc as soon as you get the computer and turn it on for the first time....a must get rid of the norton that seems to come with all computers and download AVG free as well as Super anti spyware free. Install a router so that the laptop can be accessed any where in the house. Teach your mother to back up any pictures regularly so to not clog the computer. And if this computer you get her is for web surfing, teach her to clean her internet cache and do a disc clean up regularly to get rid of the temp files that can clog a computer and slow it down. These are simple easy tasks that anyone can do. the nice part about a laptop, is if she decides to sit in her favorite chair, the computer can go with her. It takes up way less space than a desk top so it is less permantent invasive. [/QUOTE]
