what's the best laptop for a freshman?
Hey to the person reading this, I have a problem I don't know which laptop to pick.im starting my freshman year in college study physical therapy this spring. I know I will have to take alot of boys and I wanna be well prepared for it. I want to spend within the range of 500-800 for a laptop kinda on the light side. I kinda want a suface pro3 with the detachable keyboard and stylus pen..but it's pricey and I wanted I laptop with a built in cd burner. Any help or advice on this Matter will be well appreciated. Thanks in advance!

To be honest the best of anything you need is the one you can best afford. If you cannot afford the Surface Pro 3 then lower your sights to something you can afford that will allow you to have the most of what you actually will need.
The CD burner is an expensive option. You might settle for a thumb drive and then go to say a FedEx store and use one of their computers or the College Library to burn a disc when you need to.
I would suggest you see if you qualify for any student loans and any Grants such as Pell grants. In your student loans you can add in the cost of books, tuition and the cost of the laptop you want. See the financial aid counselor at your college for help with this.
I'm somewhat partial to Dell products. I have never had a problem that wasn't caused by me and then it was always repaired under the extended warranty I purchase with the computer. When the warranty runs out I buy a new one as the one I have is usually obsolete by that time.
Dell also has a student purchase program. Go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) for more information.
