I don't see how any college student can be without a computer, and especially a laptop. I'd recommend that you look at the Dell Inspirons. Some really good pc's for a very reasonable price. Hope this helps.

hello, im a nursing student in UST and I believe that laptop is not that necessary. I have a laptop but I don't really use it.. Hehe. An internet cafe is usually sufficient for doing research and presentation. Just find cheap internet cafes. I go to NETOPIA just across my school and they have a promo of 15 pesos per hour. That's cheap enough for me. Oh, my school, UST has FREE internet in our library, so I research and do my computer works there most of the time to save money, not to mention FREE internet connection and FREE enjoyment of COOL AIRCON!! no joke. Hahaha.. ANother point you may want to consider is that laptops cost A LOT and they add to your STRESS in college life since you have to take care of it really good. If you lose it, well, it's the end of the world. Hahaha. Personally, I survive without laptop. I survive with only Internet cafe (Netopia) and of course my USB. USB are very important for storing files and can store a LOT. So basically, laptop is good but not really necessary unless your really craving for it. All of my classmates, 50 of them, do not have laptops and they don't seem to have any problems with it. Laptop is more for medicine student if you want to pursue medicine AFTER nursing.. Goodluck

Definitely a plus for education purposes. Helps with research and saving your review materials. Just having the net at your side for quick reference is reason enough. There are a lot of good choices out there. I have a intel desktop but also have an acer laptop I use. For good discounts, check out the Gilmore area. Or browse pc-express or villman pc. Happy buying!
