My son was given a list of requirements for the laptop he’s expected to bring to school this fall. I’m pretty surprised at how expensive it is. We have to order it since the local stores don’t carry anything equipped with 500 GB HD, 8GB of RAM and i7 processor and Windows 7 Professional. (Northwestern, Medill- journ major)

The computer that has a discount through the school is a Dell Latitude E6510. Is anyone familiar with this laptop?

Boy is this year going to be expensive! Do your kids have computer requirements for their schools?
