Ooooh, Mikado! I saw that six years ago at the Savoy and loved it. And there is something about students being willing to make utter fools of themselves that works really well with G&S.
The pattern for the dress looks lovely, by the way -- any chance you'll post the actual thing?
And as for laptops...I have an Apple iBook that has mostly served me well over the past four years, outside of one harrowing incident with a broken hard drive (which would have been far less harrowing, had University Computing Services simply told me that the hard drive was broken and replaced it, rather than making me think the entire machine was dead). It's very simple and generally very reliable -- a good thing for those as bad with computers as I am -- but Macs tend to be more expensive than PCs as a rule.
