Laptops better (Score 2, Interesting)

When I was in school there was nothing better than a laptop. I bought a Compaq x1200 about 2 years ago for $1200 in one of those post christmas sales and it was one of my best computer purchases. The imac might be a nice desktop computer, but nothing beats going outside and using the campus wifi network to listen to music and do your homework. I also liked being able to whip out a draft to show a prof in his or her office, and taking my work home with me during breaks or study sessions. Invariably students as a whole need a decent laptop with a bright screen and long battery life, and maybe a decent graphics chip for some forgiving games like civ 3 or WoW. I bought mine and still to this day find it much more useful than my desktop for office work (and the occasional game of civ 3).
