I've done some work for lawyers before in the it field and I would place a hefty bet of $10 that the reason that she has that laptop is that her old one broke down and she told her it guy to get her the most powerful laptop available.

Lawyers are not really known for being technologically savvy, same for doctors and teachers, but they often have a lot of money to burn for tax purposes every year.

Yeah there are so many lawyers with AOL accounts. I personally know one who is a powerhouse, won awards and whatnot. But outside the courtroom? As dumb as a bag of bricks, super naive, was shocked to learn they are an attorney, let alone the go to attorney in their field.
