Laptop for college

<p>I'm getting a laptop for college and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions. I really don't even know where to begin. I would like something reliable and semi-lightweight. I can't afford super expensive laptops, under $1500 would be best. If anyone has suggestions that would be really helpful.
Also, if anyone was super unhappy with a particular laptop that would be helpful as well.</p>

<p>Thanks,

<p>Okay...as long as you DO NOT get a mac you won't go wrong....</p>

<p>I got a three-pound Toshiba and it's been pretty nice except I had to take it to get fixed three times in the first year. Buy the two-year warranty.</p>

<p>Also, there's this</a> forum. :)</p>

<p>I haven't had any problems with my Dell...</p>

<p>But of course, I got mine a month before they came out with the colored ones! -_-</p>

<p>get a mac.
I haven't had a single problem in over a year.</p>

<p>look at newegg.com
Cheap prices, easy-to-use and customizable search options.</p>

<p>macs are the way to go</p>

<p>If you are ordering online make sure you google 'computer brand' coupon . You can find pretty good coupons. I found a 30% off one for the Dell laptop I bought in December.</p>
