<p>What laptops do you recommend for a business major (undergrad student)?</p>
<p>The brands I am looking at are Dell, HP, Sony, and possibly Lenovo.</p>
<p>I don't know much about Lenovo but a lot of people say it's good...?</p>
<p>I have a $1000 budget and I want a laptop with a built in webcam too.
It also needs to have good battery life, memory, storage, etc.</p>
<p>Check the UW DoIT site for computer recommendations.</p>
<p>Here are the UW MBA program computer reqs. It should be adequate for undergrad.</p>

<p>It was relatively easy to find.</p>
<p>As a junior marketing major, my old Dell Inspiron 6400 broke in November after 3 years of usage. It was hefty(6 pounds), huge(15.4 inches) and a pain to carry in the bag. </p>
<p>I researched a lot of laptops and eventually came to the Lenovo Thinkpad X200. It was a sales, so I was able to buy mine for 850 shipped. I take it to all my business classes, as it replaces paper and pencil note-taking quite succinctly. It is a 12.1 inch laptop, and with my 9 cell battery, which gets from 7 to 12 hours of battery life, weighs in at 3.5 pounds. Build quality is great, and the keyboard is second to none.</p>
<p>Then again, a lot of my classmates have macbook pros and macbook airs. I guess its a status thing lol.</p>
<p>Ok, I’ve limited down my choices. I was trying to limit down to one laptop for each brand but I kinda need help with that…</p>
