<p>I’m not sure which field within engineering I want to take (leaning towards Electrical or Computer Science) so what laptop would you guys recommend I get? Budget of about $1500.</p>

<p>[Clevo</a> HID P170EM i7 17.3" Gaming Laptop for $1,350.00](<a href=“http://www.hidevolution.com/clevo-hid-p170em-i7-17-3-gaming-laptop.html]Clevo”>http://www.hidevolution.com/clevo-hid-p170em-i7-17-3-gaming-laptop.html)</p>

<p>You will see no laptop with the same spec cost less than this</p>

<p>Whatever you want, it doesn’t really matter much</p>

<p>If you like Tablet PCs you may want to look into the Lenovo Thinkpad X230t.</p>

<p>If you want a more rugged computer you may want to look into the Panasonic Toughbook CF-C1BWFAZ1M.</p>

<p>Personally I liked using my tablet PC to take notes in school.</p>

<p>I have never heard of Clevo so I’m unsure about the one Ilovecolgate is recommending but, as an engineering student there is no need to be spending $1,200+ for a laptop.</p>

<p>You can get a nice Asus with 8GB of ram along with an i7 processor for $799 from MicroCenter: [Micro</a> Center - ASUS R500VM-MS71 15.6" Laptop Computer - Mocha R500VM-MS71](<a href=“http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0388092]Micro”>http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0388092)</p>
