I just bought a mac and it's amazing. seriously, it's the best computer for college. my dad works with computers and he talked to all his hi tech guys and they all said if you're going to college get a mac, they are expensive but i did some research and they say that with all the stuff you have to put on dells and whatever else with virus protection you pay for a mac within the first year because you dont have to put any of that stuff on it. no one has figured out how to get a virus on a mac.

That's the ebuyer page for laptops. I get all my computer stuff from there, they're pretty good (although I've never bought a laptop from them).
As for specs, I'll assume you want it for writing documents, browsing the web and using E-Mail. If that's the case then it doesn't really matter too much about the specs. If you're getting a laptop with vista on it (and unless you lie at some point it will have vista) I'd recommend at least 2GB RAM. It'll run with less, but not very well. Aside from that, most systems should have what you need.
Of course if you're used to macs then get a macbook like other people said. I don't really like macs, but if you do then you might be better off with one. Macs are good for multimedia stuff, so if you're doing a multimedia course you should definitely consider a macbook.

I agree with a Macbook.
The Apple store, at least where I live, is having a deal for college students with buying a macbook. You get one for a pretty good price, and with an online-rebate, you get basically a free iPod Touch and a free printer.
If you have an Apple Store in a mall near you, see if you can find out more about the deal ;]
My sister did it and she loves her Mac =].
