<p>Well i think the topic has come of age as currently among the very hot topic… so lets throw the question to the whole intel crowd here.</p>
<p>Whats your choice of laptop and why for the upcoming college experiance ??</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>Kenyon will be giving me a free Machintosh when I enter. And another one in my Junior year. So yeah, I have no worries about laptop issues. =)</p>
<p>what!!!
yeah then go kenyon, i am sure smu doesn’t provide free laptops :p</p>
<p>wow… and what abt others…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>well obviously it comes at a price. =)</p>
<p>But then… SMU does provide free laptops… SGD 3000 for you to go shopping arh… haha =)</p>
<p>I am considering an apple…
I am thinking about the new macbook, which will replace the Ibook in June… Apple is just cool</p>
<p>yeah macbook pro for me too…i just love the “fruit company”…hoping to see a price fall by the time i buy it!!..</p>
<p>??? SMU provide free laptops really??? (well maybe it’s included in the school fees, since it’s significantly higher than NUS’s and NTU’s…)</p>
<p>Actually no, SMU will give you some offers to choose between a laptop or a tablet PC, usually Fujitsu ones, and they cost quite a lot.</p>
<p>The “perfect laptop” thing is just a myth. There’s no “perfect” laptop.</p>
<p>hey woebee n kenyon!
I’m thinkin of a Vaio. It’s so sleek and drool-worthy. Y is kenyon giving you everything? omg… i still hav to source for a lappie below 2.5.
What’s so good bout the apple? I’ve never used an apple be4, how easy is to switch?</p>
<p>Apple now has a windows also… so it’s not really switching. You get the best of both worlds. =)</p>
<p>and erm, nope kenyon isnt giving me everything. it comes at a price like i’ve said. By the way, Duke is giving free ipods to students who take language courses!! </p>
<p>Vaio is not worth the money. seriously. get a fujitsu instead if you have a money. a dell is great also…</p>
<p>and the laptop from SMU = scholarship.</p>
<p>Seriously…the scholarship @ SMU is pathetic. They should call like the SMU allowance. That said, it’s better than nothing. </p>
<p>Free ipod for language courses? wth?!? I’ll take re-take chinese classes anytime. </p>
<p>Why is Vaio not worth the money. Isin’t a Vaio as overpriced as a fujitsu or a toshiba? They are all japanese powerhouses. Dell & Acer is out of the question. </p>
<p>I wonder how LG, Samsung and NEC is ‘reputated’ in the computer world.</p>
<p>has everyone forgotten HP???
personally i think hp nx is the best…only the apple power mac can compare…
in sense of looks, performace an durability…</p>
<p>im no expert, but i think the vaio, and HP are good. I wouldn’t buy Acer or Dell, dell has inferior internals, or so I’m told.</p>
<p>can anyone provide a link or explain this Apple with windows in it? What benefits of Apple’s world exactly do we get? never used an apple before</p>
<p>i nvr ever thought hp’s design was appealing.</p>
<p>I don’t really care what’s inside the lappie. At long as it serves its purpose and got a beautiful & drool-worthy design. Is that Vaio or a Fujitsu?</p>
<p>Toshiba tecra M4 Tablet PC!!!:)</p>
<p>hmm… well thats only abt a handful of names… lets c what others think abt this …</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>Get a ibm/lenovo if you want a PC. By far the most reliable.</p>
<p>Do not get a Vaio, as it is overpriced crap, and do not get a fujitsu, as they use subpar components.</p>
