PC Magazine just published its annual laptop guides for college students. While most students today are opting for the latest Mac, there are a host of Windows based alternatives available, particularly if price is a factor in your decision.
Remember, that before you invest in a new laptop, it is wise to check with the school to see if they have specific requirements. Many schools have repair centers that are only offered to students that purchase their computer through the school. On-site repair at your school will usually result in a much faster turn-around time instead of having to return it to the vendor.
