What is a good (fairly priced) laptop for a college student?




jimmythetu


Something in the range of 1000 to 1500 dollars, what is a good laptop that has good power while in that price range?


Answer
For a college student Laptops within range 700 to 1000 is fine.(Usually they are Dell laptops).If you want to go for 1000-1500 You can go for Sony Vaio with the same config as Dell.

Good Laptop for College Student?




Frank


This fall will be my first year in college, and i have begun to shop around for laptops. I am an Economics Business Major, but I am also pursuing either a minor or a double major in Political Science. So, i will mostly use my laptop for writing essays, working on PowerPoint's, and excel spreadsheets, and research. I do not want to buy a Mac or a Sony, as i have already determined them to be overpriced, and simply not worth the money (personal preference). So I have narrowed it down to Dell, HP, and Acer. I'm looking to spend somewhere between $400 and $750. I want the laptop to be durable (i.e. not breaking down every other day), portable, and contain good battery life and memory (at least 3 GB of Ram). Thank You!


Answer
Most laptops can handle that. But I can tell you right now you do not want a dell or an acer they're the two worst. Dell is a bad company and Acers are built poorly.

HP is a great brand, other great brands are aces, toshiba, compaq and sony. Not all sony are over priced I bought one six months age for $650 dollars, 4GB, great processors, dedicated graphic card and 500GB hard drive. You just have to know where to find them.

So here are some great laptops that will work for you. I only listed intel processors, as you don't want to have AMD.
