Hey. I need a laptop for college this fall and my dad and i are planning on going later this week to look around. i personally don't have a clue what to get and i don't really trust my father to either. i know what i would like out of it however:
-normal Microsoft type programs (word, excel, etc)
-plenty of memory
-good enough gaming computer for Steam games (Left 4 Dead and Half Life in particular)
we were looking at Dells, but past that i'm not sure what kind of specs a college kid needs in his laptop, especially if i want to be able to take my 15 some game library with me. thanks for any help and advice!
EDIT: price tag is probably around 700 at most, if i remember correctly
