New Laptop for College-Bound student?

lolaurence

Hey guys, I'm going to graduate soon and for a graduation present my mom is giving me a $500 limit on a brand new laptop.
What's the best laptop I can get out there within the price range.

Keep in mind that this laptop must be able to suit my needs:
Lots of music, pictures and videos
Networking (ex. Myspace, Aim, Yahoo, Windows Live)
School Work (ex. Big papers, powerpoints, spreadsheets)
Decent battery life

I prefer a Windows system, but if there's a good Mac out there that'll fit these needs, then by all means PLEASE let me know.
Thanks yahoo!

Answer
Hell Laurence,
If your mom is providing you with $500, then why don't you better wait for some few more days and ask for $500 more so that you can buy a good Dell laptop in that price. The price of the technology and the electronics goods are decreasing every day, so I think it would be a prudent decision if you can wait a bit longer and then buy a brand new hunk laptop.

As far as your choices are concerned -- the one that you have mentioned; I think you will get all those features in that price. But if you are in hurry, then you can buy a laptop at that price. You will get all those features you have mentioned. Those are the basic features of any computer. So, any computer can have at least those features. You do not need to worry about it, dude.

Wish you all the best with your new laptop.
