<br>
Recently, I had a problem where I urgently needed to get my wife to be <br>
able to use her (very old) PC, the network port had simply disappeared <br>
(probably due to humidity), so I took my son's old Core i5 mobo/CPU to <br>
replace her ancient Core i3 mobo/CPU, and set it up in the living room.<br>
<br>
Considering how much work she already does on her iPhone and iPad, I <br>
thought that getting her some sort of Mac might make sense. She'd only <br>
be using it to write court sentences (that's what she does for a living: <br>
sending people to prison and fining them), and maybe access some documents.<br>
<br>
The biggest issue really is the network in her office. There is an <br>
Ethernet cable running from the "network hub" (the living room) to the <br>
other side of the house, where her office is, but it seems that the <br>
signal gets degraded, or perhaps the cable just broke. That's something <br>
I need to solve anyway.<br>
<br>
So, is it worth getting a Mac? Would it offer a good integration in <br>
Apple's ecosystem?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
