You guys are making me breathe a little easier, thanks. IIrealize it's not the very latest version, but it will be more than adequate for his needs. The 2.4G with the 250G hard drive was $1299 (+ tax), but this way I can spend the extra on Applecare (I will). I already have an extra 4GB of memory laying around that I couldn't use in my daughters core duo MacBook, so we're all set there. Hell, I even have an 80GB Firelite external drive still in the box that I'll give him if he needs the extra space.
