Author Topic: My school is giving me a laptop. Update: page 2, I got it!  (Read 3898 times)

So about a week ago I visited my counselor about a schedule change and I just brought up at some point how I'd like to have a laptop to use in school, he tells me he'll look into it. Then today he pulls me aside during lunch and tells me that someone has donated a computer and they are going to give it to me. I don't know what kind of computer it is or the specs yet but I think it should be decent.

$50 says its a stuffty laptop.

I just hope it's not one of those tiny ass netbooks with the stupid keyboards.

Edit: Also the computer is from a third party source so chances are likely that it's not.

Nobody just donates good laptops.

I can't seem to understand why you are getting the laptop out of all the kids in school.

This person must have been feeling charitable. Also they donated their laptop because they purchased a new one.

Because I asked, duh.

because he had the initiative to ask silly.

50 dollars it's a 50 dollar laptop

I wish I could use my laptop in school
lucky

I can't see why they would donate a perfectly fast laptop and buy a new one if it's fast. Sorry.
But hey, laptops aren't really for gaming and are mostly for web and stuff on the run. Just so long as it's got more than a 1GHz CPU :D

Laptops really were created for business and school, so Ethan's right about performance not being too high of a priority

I got a good laptop hand-me-down from my sister

I use my computer every day in school ._. it's so convenient to not have to write anything down when you can type the notes faster than the teacher is writing them on the board.
