Available in wired or wireless networking configurations, this printer could help an entrepreneurial graduate with a plan get started with a new business. With business school in the past, HP’s OfficeJet 6500 can handle the grunt work of building a startup by printing attractive, colorful marketing collateral, scanning in checks and other important documents (at 2400 dots per-inch optical), quickly printing out paper records, making spontaneous copies, and even sending the occasional fax to old-school associates. With hyper-efficient ink economy, a 250 page-holding paper tray, and a speedy 32 pages per minute of text, this printer has the potential to become a reliable workhorse in a small home office space.

A bit late. Everyone I know has graduated.

No high-school school or middle school years have ended, and no quarter-system universities have finished the semester yet. Semester system universities held graduation, mostly, last week. I don't think it is too late to be thinking about graduation gifts at all.

Here are my thoughts.

On the AIO PC: It's nothing more than a laptop without a battery. Nothing can be upgraded. Consider getting a Laptop instead. On the plus side, it is stylish.

On the HP Printer (from personal experience): Every HP printer I've used have had horrible problems loading paper. Consider Lexmark or Canon.

On the Panasonic Camera: Nikon's Coolpix and Canon's Powershot can be found at similar prices and are (generally) better cameras.

I must admit though, the N10Jc looks pretty cool ;)

Hey Quantumrand,

Thanks for you advice. What if I asked for you to find me a computere under $500 with a tiny footprint (no tower) and a bigger than 17-inch screen. Would you be able to do that? That's where I think the cheapie AIOs come into play.

Better as a wrist support pad. I have 3 PC's and I can only use this one 1 of the them. Really? I have to buy 3 separate Replicas for my PC's? In this economy? No thanks

There is a multi-PC version of the Seagate Replica, we just didn't review it: http://shop.seagate.com/store/sgat [...] .125882200

All I know is that the best gift buy would be great if I wasn't worried about other luxuries such as food, clothing, & shelter.
