Answer
Could have made it cheaper and it looks like a little too much, but it appears a solid build for college. As far as gaming goes, it also looks acceptable (all depends on how intensive you're going to get with it).

I don't know how you treat your stuff, but if you find yourself using the laptop unplugged a lot I would invest in a 12-cell battery. If not then you're most likely fine without it.

Also, if you could post your major that would be helpful, as well. Don't know if you checked with your university's minimum specs/departmental specs before building this, but for most majors this should be fine.

What PC laptop should I get for college 2011?

I am looking into the Sony Viao F series but I am really not sure what to look for. The only thing I do know is that I do not want a mac.

Answer
My advice would not be to get VAIO's with i5 or i7 processors because they get hot and limit what graphics cards you can have for gaming.
I have the 13.3 inch S series with i3, 1066 FSB, 4 GIG DDR3 RAM and Nvidia Gforce 310M, it runs cool and runs all games, it has a metallic magnesium cover and is very portable too.
