You're getting ready to go to college or university. You know you're budget is going to be tight over the coming years, but you know you need the right equipment to get you through!
What do you do?!
First things first... don't panic! Theres absolutely nothing to panic about! Sit yourself down in the quiet for an hour or so, grab a pen and paper (yup... to solve your tech needs you'll need a pen and paper) and analyse and evaluate your potential circumstances.
Good questions to bear in mind:
1) Location - Where are you going to be the most? Classes, Bedroom, Library?
2) Activity(s) - What are you going to be doing the most? Internet, Word processing, programming, media?
3) Frequency - How often will you be doing said activities? Hourly, daily, weekly?
Going from what we considered earlier this week when selecting a Computer/Laptop, remember the criteria! Know the terminology and understand the specifications. Have a budget and stick to it. Be prepared to compromise.
Laptop or Desktop?... both?
Power and performance or battery life?
Price or quality?
If you can afford it, and if you're smart about it, you could get away with both a Desktop to do the bulk of your work, and a simple standard laptop to give you that mobility factor.
Obviously If you can't... you cant. But one thing I will suggest is if you go for the Laptop, get the following:
- Keyboard
- Mouse
- Monitor
- External Hard Drive
These additions will prolong the life of your laptop and heavily reduce the wear and tear!
Think Smart. You're Welcome.
