Any info. on this or alternatives from you IT folk would be useful.

Main uses - Microsoft Office, Presentations, Video, Photos, CD/DVD, Email & Internet via wireless.

Take a trip to an Apple Store, if those are your main uses a windoze box is not the best option, I use a G4 laptop and like you most of the time its office, (excel or powerpoint), presentations ( either powerpoint or keynote if i am running a lot of video in the presentation and can live without auto slide timings) finalcut pro for video editing and dvd studio pro for dvd authoring ( the G4 comes with imovie and idvd which are both fine for light use), 802.11g wireless, bluetooth are in the box. biggest plus i find is ability to run different types of video in the presentation and ease of swapping to different projectors screen sizes. plus no virus problems or spyware/adware.
