New Laptop for college!!!?

Jamie

I'm in serious need of a new laptop, and I have no idea what to get.
I"m a freshman in college so I need a slim and light laptop that I will have no problem taking with me to the library or lecture halls or where ever else I'll be going to study. Oh, and a long battery life is essential too.
I also plan on watching movies and videos on the laptop so I think I want one that's about 14inches.
I've been attempting to do research, and I like the Asus UL80VT for its long battery life and the fact that it's under 15 lbs while still having a 14 inch screen. Is that a good laptop? I don't really play games at all but I will be watching movies, web surfing, using word documents and listening to music, so basically just the essentials.
Any other suggestions under 1.2K?

Hi!

Yes, The Asus UL80VT is a good notebook but it is a bit bulky. You can get good laptops from Asus, Dell and Sony. But Sony is overpriced and not valuable to money. As your needs are amateur, you can get a Acer 4750G laptop with a Intel Pentium Dual-Core. For a better one, you can check out Dell Studio 15 with Intel Core i5, 4 GB RAM and a good graphic card. Also you can get a netbook which usually have the battery life of about 8-10 hours. But they have a tiny screen and keyboard so not recommended to you

If you CAN only wait, Intel would launch decent dual-core netbook chips.So you can get it.

Don't spend extra money on Macbooks, they're expensive but are powerful and entertaining also being durable.

Have a good time !

Good Laptop for college?

SwissChees

Hey.
I'm looking to buy a laptop for college. I want something light weight and smaller, so that I can bring it around with me at school all day. I would prefer it was pink.
Macbook is a little out of my price range and a netbook won't have all the things I need on it.
I'm trying to keep my price range under $600
any advice would be helpful. Thanks.
