It's not really that we wouldn't entertain trying a Macbook, it's the fact that the IT geeks at her work WILL NOT support Mac hardware (regardless of if the hardware is superior or not) so there's no point in even trying.
At the very least, this discussion is adding things I should look at. Battery life believe it or not is another thing we didn't even really consider.... less than 3 hour battery life for a laptop seems absurd and essentially defeats the purpose of owning a laptop in my opinion.
Also remember, she wants a max of a 15" screen. One because it'll more than likely be lighter, but also the bulkiness of some of the laptops we looked at that were larger than 15 inches really turned her off the benefit of the larger screen size.
