<p>witticism u rock! thanks so much!</p>
<p>..uh, I would avoid the Toshiba satellite series and anything by Toshiba unless it's their upper end Tecra's due to error report rates. They don't seem to hold up well in quality reports. Other general brands to avoid- emachines, compaq, lower end Dells... just because they have frequent problems, and warranties are a mess to deal with if you are fortunate enough to strike a fair one in the first place.</p>
<p>Two questions: 12" or 15" (I've heard that functionality is better in the 15"...any truth to this?) and I can't seem to find any info on the department websites on a recommended OS. Are Windows or Macs recommended for bio/neuro majors?</p>
<p>Does anyone know how we can access the discounts for Brown students at dell.com?</p>
