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.

Preferably under $500.
I'm only a junior now but I not be getting a new one when I go to college.
I dont need any fancy stuff, just Word, PPT, ect.
Also it would be mainly used for streaming videos, webcam, chat, fb ect.

We currently have a PC computer, which works great so a laptop from this company would be great.
Thanks

We did research for my daughter laptop for fall 2010 and saw this: http://www.laptopmag.com/mobile-life/scores-by-brand-best-brands.aspx#axzz167RQ48GW

We went with the Lenovo. It has fingerprint security, facial recognition software, webcam and microphone (so you can skype all your friends and family while in college) and much more. We paid 479 from bestbuy.

You could more search for 2011 to see if there is data for that yet but the year is still young so not sure if they would yet.

But my daughter loves it. I
