Looking for laptop for uni

[MrCraig]

Hey,
Im going to university next month for a masters in computing science and was wondering what your opinions were on the best, affordable, laptops available

Thanks for any feedback

Whats your budget?

[MrCraig]

Im hoping somewhere around the £500 mark.

I know you said around ~£500 but I would spend a bit more and go for this, it's what I am considering for doing the same course.

You can get it a little cheaper (£100) with an i3 processor and such

I'd get a laptop that you can use - I'm no expert in computer sciences at all but you'd need a laptop that can do certain stuff if you get me.

No point buying a too cheap one that can't run certain stuff.

If you buy from dell, have a look on the net for a 5% off coupon. Or try WNVR3M$BFX?VDW

Its a great laptop for most tasks.

kinda off topic, but cant you get discount off of dell computers if youre a student?
