Looking to buy a laptop that will be used primarily for:

1. School work

2. Photo and music uploads and downloads

3. Burning/Creating Music and Movies

I do play games on the computer but not a daily thing.

Looking for something that obviously has a lot of memory, clarity, efficient, light weight.

I have a Dell PC now (about 5-6 years old) that I want to keep and use in conjuction with the laptop. Would like a MAC but not sure about its compatibility with my PC

Looking for suggestions - I do not have thousands of dollars to spend - possibly looking into refurbished laptops? Thanks in advance

If so, how did it help you? was it worth it? how much did it cost and how long was the tutoring (like how many sessions did you have to go to)

I don’t know much about laptops. So, as I’m only 16 and I’m going into the 11th grade, I will only need this laptop for my remaining 2 years left of high school. After that, I will buy a laptop of more quality.

Until then, my laptop that I will want to purchase will have to be in the price range of below 0. Main things I will be using the laptop will be just for school work, and for music (I have only 40gb of music).

Could you please help me find a laptop?
I was thinking about this laptop, what do you think?

Okay over the summer i have bought the Princeton Review 11 SAT and PSAT practice book. Took the october SAT 2009, and scored a 1910.

I want to break the 2000 mark and have decided to take the Princeton Review Classroom Course. With the early bird special promotion (sign up before nov 9) ill get a 5 discount.

for those who have took the course, what should i expect in the class? Are there vocabulary cards that they give you and books? and how does the class run?

Thanks in advance!

when i ask ‘what too look for’ i mean as in gb, mb, just the basic size for my first laptop. i will only be using it for personal, emaill and shopping and school.

I am going to be a senior this year in high school. I currently have a Toshiba laptop and it’s about three years old…still runs real nice for a well-worn computer, but it’s too behind the times for me. Basically, I want to get an updated, not TOO expensive computer (roughly around 0-650 is what I want to spend) that will play specifically The Sims 3. I’d also want it for normal stuff like holding word documents and photos and whatnot, but mainly I just like to use the internet at play the Sims. I am going to go to Best Buy…and I want to know, should I get a desktop, or a laptop? And what specific things should I look for?

I am a freshman in high-school (home-schooled) and i am also in college, i was just wondering if there was an accelerated SAT and ACT Prep course that would help me prepare for the Sat and ACT, and also get me up to date with college algebra, history, science, and english.

Here are a list of things i need in the class:

I need something that will only take 6-12months
I need to be able to track my progress

I am looking to buy laptop. I am looking for a fast laptop with a descent size hard drive. I am looking to use it for school, social networking, video chatting, and watching movies. It must be very durable and last me a long time. Please give me suggestions of laptops that may suit me. Thank you.
I am not a gamer.

Critical Reading : 490
Writing: 570
(MC: 57, Essay: 8)
Math: 450

whats my total score? and if this were my real sat score would it get me into decent colleges?

Why does my school buy high end computers just to use Microsoft Word and occasionally Internet Explorer? They always complain about not having any money after they buy this stuff for no reason… My old crappy laptop can run those programs just fine and it’s from 1999.
They also complain about not having money for books and paper. We have to supply our own paper FOR THEM.

It looks cool to me. Anybody have feedback on it?

I am going to be attending grad school (for 4 years) in Ohio in the fall. And I am visiting my family in Korea right now and my uncle wants to buy me a new laptop for graduation gift/being accepted to grad school. He and many others recommend SamSung laptop but I am not so sure because of these following reasons:

I have never owned a samsung laptop before (I’ve had toshiba, averatec which is piece of junk, and dell)

The samsung laptop is going to be in all in Korean. I am fluent in Korean but I am not so sure if I can have Microsoft Office in English for my school stuff.

If I am going to have valid warranty when I get to Ohio.

If I can convert my entire computer setting to English from Korean (I think I can but I am not so sure…)

If buying samsung laptop in Korea is cheaper or more expensive than buying a Dell or hp laptop in USA

I am looking for an everyday use laptop about 13-15 inch screen with 2.2-2.3 GHz processor (prefers Intel Core 2 Duo), 2-3GB memory with 250~350GB harddrive… if it’s not too much I would like a decent video card and decent battery(I’ve had bad experience with Dell 6 cell battery..)

If anyone ever have bought Samsung laptop and/or converted to English and brought back to USA and had problems (or not) please let me know. My uncle wants what’s best for me and offered to send money if it’s worth buying it in USA when I get back in the fall.

looking to spend about 1,000,000won more or less. (~1,200dollars for now I guess)

I’m in high school, so I obviously can’t afford much. I’ll have to save up Christmas money. We only have one computer in the house, so I would love to have a computer of my own. I have two brothers and it is very difficult to get to the computer when I need to do work for school. I would strictly be using this laptop to do homework,surfing the web, emailing, im’ing, etc.

I have heard about Kaplan and Sylvan prep courses, but are there any other really good ones?

I am getting a new laptop because my desktop is screwed up.. My dad wants to make sure I can use this computer before he buys it… I go to flvs btw… I am like 99% percent sure but of course I have to check because my dad doesnt want to spend that much money for a computer I cant use.. Oh ya mac or pc?

has anyone ever taken one would it be worth it to take this summer as a junior this year senior next year

I am looking into buying a laptop and I need some suggestions on a good brand to buy and how to equip it. I mainly want to use the laptop for personal reasons such as: for music, live t.v./videos, school work, internet browsing and software usage for people going into Information Technology degree. (I guess you could say a laptop for a college student.) I would however though like the laptop to be very fast and responsive with good memory and storage. Can anyone help me out?
