<p>I wasn’t planning to think about this until August, but my mother has other ideas. Any recommendations for laptops? I know Brandeis recommends one from the Dell Latitude models. Do most people go with that or buy one of their choice (inspiron)?</p>
<p>I'm going with a mac cause they are least likely to get viruses... and, well, college campus' don't have the greatest rep for keeping their computers clean</p>
<p>I played with the idea of a mac, but am a lot more comfortable with Windows.</p>
<p>i haven't heard students say one is better than another. i ordered the exact dell model that Brandeis recommended. honestly, not that many people choose to follow Brandeis' recommendation exactly. (probably the nature of Brandeis kids to not accept the status quo)</p>
<p>im getting a mac! its faster more reliable and has a better operating system. hell, you can also run windows on your mac. even windows runs faster on a mac computer.</p>
