Since so many students are going off to college, I thought it would be a good idea to list some good brands of laptops with certain perks that go well with college life. Obviously, the cost would be a good note to mention.

So any college people or people out of college mind to mention a few things? heck, you could mention things that are great to have going into/in college.

go.

Well, for Macs, viruses aren't really an issue.

Just get a good anti-virus program and run it regularly. Whether or not it gets infected easily depends entirely on you and how you set up your computer.

As for a laptop for those simple processes, I suggest an Acer because those are hella cheap. You might also want to check Tiger Direct or Costco to find a simple laptop. I wouldn't suggest getting one with Vista because you have to pump up the RAM which might increase the cost.
