my friend has gotten through 3 years of a cs major on a $130 laptop that can't even run hearthstone

that sounds terrible and kind of a waste
if he can do that, he should be able to just do it on his phone, maybe plug in a keyboard if need be

actually come to think of it, there isn't much that can't just be done a phone
since google docs is a thing for documents/spreadsheets/presentations
and juicessh is pretty good for sshing into a server to code on

He hasn't missed anything and honestly he stands by his decision because it limits his distractions lol
I see no waste :)

yeah my friend bought a $150 laptop for college and treated him good. he doesnt game or anything so he literally just used office suite and a web browser on it

[carolcat]

my laptop is capable of gaming but the campus wifi sure aint

and also i have no time for games inbetween my workouts and all of my schoolwork. 17 credit hours more like "literally end me"

but if you already have a smart phone that can do everything you're going to do on a laptop, then why do you need it?
it even has a built in spell checker if you're typing in a document, it's almost impossible to misspell something if you're using swipe to type

uhhh idk about you but i prefer typing up my 10 page papers on a bigger screen with a keyboard. not to mention a lot of courses require you to download some sort of application or use flash

[phflack]

10 page papers

that sounds excessive
good thing for me that computer science doesn't require paper writing

really just a cheap ass chromebook will be good for college

now I'm sick

I really needed that

now I'm sick

I really needed that

from what I've seen stress is the main cause of that
my sister used to get sick during midterms + finals
it was amusing because I would go and get her food and end up being a carrier of sickness, then spread it to everybody in the dorm

[Tactical Nuke]

maybe

my roommate's been like super sick so I might've gotten it from him even though I tried to stay healthy
