Boot up times are VERY important too.

716893 2008-11-03 21:57:00 It seems like a good business-grade laptop - and not so heavy that it'll turn our kids into hunchbacks. somebody (208)
716894 2008-11-03 22:30:00 You seem pretty freaking sold on it, so why are you asking us?

I wouldn't pay that much for it. Not even near. Learn to fix your own problems, I think, call it character building.

Seems like the school are raking it in. Why do you need laptops for high school anyway? Too good for pen and paper? I'd imagine you'd spend more time screwing round getting them to work than you would actually working. If my pen broke at school I threw it away and got a new one.

$2700 is a good price for that particular model of laptop.
I have looked on my suppliers site and I can't buy it for that!

716897 2008-11-04 01:37:00 whoops, I voted without knowing the price. The CPU is the fastest available ultra low voltage core 2 duo available.

If it is only for school work, you don't need huge amounts of power, and as far as mobile cpus go, the 'slower'/longer battery life, the better.

716899 2008-11-04 07:34:00 Wish my school had computers when I was there, the first ones arrived 2 years after I left. I've only learnt how to use them properly in the last 5 years. If techs can't buy them for that then the price should be OK gary67 (56)
