I just started my 2nd semester at UCLA and still don't own a laptop. What do you think is the best laptop for a college student and why? PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THOUGH!! :)

FYI:
I have about $2,000 in student aid money left so choosing wouldn't be a problem. I just don't know if I should waste a lot of that money on a laptop....

Answer
One combination to consider is to have a fast desktop with a large monitor in your dorm room, and carry around an 11.6" netbook for classes (10.1" netbook screen is too small).

what is the typical size laptops that college students bring to class?

Q. i'm starting college august 2011 and i am preparing for it now. i was curious as to what size laptops most college students take to class? i heard its 15" standard,no matter the brand. i am thinking of getting a 12" lenovo thinkpad because my preference is smaller laptops. is that embarrassing? i mean, i dont want to walk into class and everyone has these ginormous laptops and i have a smaller one. thanks in advance.

Answer
Actually, many professors have banned laptops in classes. People who bring them aren't taking notes, they're distracting themselves and others. Get a laptop you'll use in your room, and don't worry about bringing it to class unless you're specifically told to. Just get a pad of paper and a pen to take notes. The only person I ever saw using the laptop to take notes had a netbook, so it was small.
