do graduate students prefer laptops or netbooks?




theone


hey graduate students, do you prefer a laptop or a netbook, for research and/or personal use?


Answer
The only grad students I know that have netbooks also have laptops or desktops. Netbooks don't have enough power to handle multiple programs running at once, enough memory for all the saved papers and articles, couldn't handle any special programs needed for research/homework, and long term typing on a netbook isn't as comfortable as a full sized keyboard.

What is best laptop for a graduate student around $400-500?

Answer
Dell Inspiron E1505 which I have and purchased 2 years ago so they should be around the price range you seek.
Havent had a single issue with it and the upgrade from XP to VISTA has been a breeze and it still kicks butt.
You should add a stick of ram though if you want Vista.
Love mine and will continue to buy Dell laptops because of the good experience. Hope that helps.
