<p>um... so I'm REALLY not techy. What do I need on my laptop next year? A wireless card? And spotty red rover internet is free? And all I download is music..an average amount a month. What's DC++? Thanksss! =]</p>
<p>Red Rover is free.</p>
<p>DC++ is a download network. It only works on the Cornell campus...you share files only with fellow Cornellians.</p>
<p>On your laptop you do need a wireless card...but those are standard so no worries there.</p>
<p>thanks... basically I'm hoping my dad's gonna download everything I need before I leave home and he'll set everything up and I"m going to have a super nice engineering friend...ASAP. THAT'S how untechnical I am -___-</p>
<p>yeah....pretty much every piece of software you need will be pre-loaded on the computer. You can download Cornell related software from cit.cornell.edu at anytime.</p>
