<p>So isnt UW providing notebook computers to freshman like other colleges...
Wake is providing its freshman with a cool thinkpad..</p>
<p>never heard of it</p>
<p>Public institution giving out free laptops....yeah right.</p>
<p>Too many students...</p>
<p>UW will not give you a laptop, but you can buy one for yourself if you'd like. You must not realize that the only schools that would even have something like this are private schools like how Duke gave away free iPods to everyone in its freshmen class recently. These schools have a much smaller undergraduate student body.</p>
<p>Expecting them to GIVE you a laptop is asking a little too much, but thats just my opinion. Does UW have discounts on laptops though? do they have some sort of deal with companies?</p>
<p>Check the University Bookstore. I looked a their prices and for some reason I think you're better off not buying it from the University Bookstore. The choices are limited. You'll have more choices if you do a little shopping around....Newegg has good deals.</p>
<p>sorry guys..chill out...i didnt know it was difficult for public institiutions</p>
