Computer science major?!

<p>Now im think about buying a Thinkpad since almost everyone in this forum that study engineering go with Thinkpad. What model should i gotta, the price not gonna be a big deal, under 2000 dollars is a good deal to me!!! </p>

<p>Also think about buying a tablet in college just for fun, not like for study etc. what should i gotta?!</p>

<p>someone plz give me a good combo, lol
thx</p>

<p>To help you first, we first need to know your most important criteria.</p>

<p>Just in general, i would love this thing last about all four years. Run most programming software, and maybe a little bit gaming as well. The screen should be as large as possible, maybe like 15.4in is prefect.</p>

<p>T520 or W520…</p>

<p>what about alienware?! seem very efficient as well hahha</p>

<p>AlienWare is HEAVY and battery life measured in minutes :-).</p>

<p>If you want a very powerful machine and good battery life, get the w520.
if your looking for portability and great battery life, get the x220 or x1.</p>
