A Filapina friend of mine who is studying in Toronto to be a pharmacist wants to buy a new laptop. She wants to know if it's better to buy one in Canada or order one from the USA. Any thoughts/suggestions?

a) Unbelievable!
b) If she is currently in Canada and tries to purchase one from the US and have it shipped to her then she will end up paying through the nose to customs. She will have to pony up GST/PST as well as tariffs depending on the original country of manufacture. If she is currently in the US then she will be able to bring the computer with her without anybody being the wiser, as long as the computer has been unpackaged and set up.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

I'll tell her I can buy one in the US and bring it to her when I visit her. She's on vacation now.Click here and here to find out how close the George Washington Bridge came to being blown up on 9/11 and why all evidence against those terrorists was classified.

No, not Karen. She says she wants an Apple MacBook 13" although what she has now is an XP laptop. Will all of her XP software be useless on the MacBook?Click here and here to find out how close the George Washington Bridge came to being blown up on 9/11 and why all evidence against those terrorists was classified.

I don't give a **** about the laptop - it's the fact Mr. Slaughter is planning a visit. The man is dangerous."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

This has nothing to do with NAFTA.
NAFTA doesn't mean **** isn't taxed. It means there's no tariffs for certain things.
****, it's the same provincially for some things too. If I buy a car in Alberta and move to Ontario they'll demand I pay provincial sales tax on the vehicle."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Alberta, FWIW, did not ask I pay PST on the car. For obvious reasons.
They did make me take it to a certified mechanic for a safety inspection. You know how unreliable those 1 year old Japanese cars bought in Ontario are."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
