To my tech support team:

Thanks for all of your good advice. I went for the refurb 13.3" Macbook & I love it!!
AND!!!! I had no problem loading my iWork '08 to my new computer... BONUS (I had the software from my last iMac purchase) (Thanks for the advice, Robert!)

It arrived in about a week. No shipping charge & Discover Card is giving me 5% back. Sweet.

I loaded all the Canon software, So I will be able to d/l when I need to. & Andi will be able to, also, from her new sd870is.
Can't wait for Roar 2.

Thanks again, all.

Doug
