MaryFred Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 While this may be a little early, I'll need a new laptop for school. I'm thinking this is a great time of year (Black Friday) to purchase a new one,"tis the season"! Do any past, current or future students have recommendations? I welcome and all advice and/or suggestions. Thank you in advance!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1ke10191 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I got a used Dell XPS 13 on Amazon for like $600. Best battery life I've ever seen on a laptop. I usually get through 2 full days of lecture on a single charge. Whatever you pick, it's just going to be a PowerPoint and Word machine. Just make sure it's reliable above all else.Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryFred Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 Great...thanks! My plan is to dedicate the new one to school only and use my current older one for everything else personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NonTraditional37 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I use a Surface Pro... Forget which number. Very small profile, and once I got used to it, I like the pen. I could write on the PowerPoint slides as if I was taking notes on paper because I couldn't keep up with typing my notes. This year they "provided" the first years with laptops, but was told they were very bulky and had a short battery life. Most people still used their own computers.
