Speaking of higher education and Dell (slightly OT)... this is directed to anyone.

I'm shopping for a Dell desktop for my niece who will be a college freshman in the fall. She's not a techie; won't be an engineer or scientist, more liberal arts and sports-oriented.

I was thinking of a Dimension 4100, 1 gig pent., 20 meg ultra hd, 128mb ram, 17" trinitron, US Rob. 56 modem, basic speakers, Windows ME, MS Works, APC back-UPS. Any thoughts on CD-RW vs. DVD? Anything I've missed that today's college frosh shouldn't have to live without?

Thanks in advance.
