£750 isn't exactly much for a good laptop which won't need replacing for a good 4 years.

Exactly what you do with any other very expensive piece of technology, treat it with respect. If it's for university it will probably be just word and internet anyway, nothing intensive.

Apple MacBook/Pro if you want to have something awesome. Although people are right in saying Apple no longer offer their "Free iPod for College" scheme, your universities IT dept. may offer some form of discount if you buy a computer through them, so how about asking them (if you've picked one)? That would definitely make the MacBook a more enticing option.

Alternatively, Dell have some really good, high-spec Win 7 laptops in their XPS range for about the same money as the basic MacBook.
