I second the vote for Mac.
I have a macbook air. I love it. Macs are bullet proof and very easy to use. You could even install windows on a mac.
Mac is expensive though. You can buy two windows pcs for the price of one mac.
If you are budget minded, you can buy a tablet pc or a chrome book.
My grandchildren get Macs when entering high school, where a computer is needed.
Their parents makes then pay for 1/2 the cost themselves because of the price.
They love them.
