<p>What laptop would best suit a computer science major with a concentration in artificial intelligence?</p>
<p>would this be the best possible lap top to get "Sager NP5160 Custom Laptop (Built on the Clevo W150HN)
Comes with two 1920x1080 options. I’d recommend the 95%-gamut B+RGLED matte screen if you can afford it, because the colors on it are awesome (it’s the same 1920x1080 screen as on the Thinkpads), but the glossy 1920x1080 is still a decent screen.
Put in the extra $30 to get the quad core i7-2630QM
Scroll to the bottom and select Windows 7 (Home Premium is good enough) for +$90, or order without an OS if you want to install a copy yourself.</p>
<p>Base model + 1920x1080 95% gamut matte + i7-2630QM + Windows 7 = $1046. Stick with the glossy 1920x1080 and it’s $925.
Hard Drive and RAM upgrades are also very well priced on this laptop. It’s only $20 to upgrade from 320GB to 500GB, both 7200RPM."</p>
<p>Hahaha, I’m a CS major and I have no idea what any of that means lol.</p>
<p>just get anything you want. I’m a CS major too and i’m doing perfectly fine in CS classes without using any specific computer or laptop. I can do my programming assignment as long as I have a computer in front of me lol</p>
<p>I’ve even heard of people who do not own computers and do fine in CS</p>
<p>of course, I don’t recommend that, but any computer should be fine</p>
<p>I personally would buy my comp through the department. You will do fine with whatever you have right now as long as it is at least an XP or newer for your beginning courses. The most important thing is to have MS Office which if you dont have you can buy from your school at a huge discount once you start.</p>
<p>Wait and buy once you learn about comp deals that your school has.</p>
