School laptop

Just to ask, will 15,6 inch be enough either or do you think it's to small to work with?

the resolution will drop from 1600x900 to 1366x768. So if you use softwares like photoshop or other graphic stuff it might not be very pleasant to work on a small resolution.

it seems like the exact same but with 1080p screen. and +100€, and also a little better graph card but still is a good laptop for your use.

[Supreme]

I'd buy that if you could, 1080p rocks, also the GT740M is powerful, I got it

everyone hates apple who doesnt have one... or cant afford it.

mines fucking awesome, use it for my a levels all the time. Boots faster than any of my mates shitty HP's or their windows computers, loads applications and documents faster and it just better to use. All these other laptops claim to have similar specs yet none run as well as a macbook... my mate spent 3 hours doing a windows update on his laptop.

College/work = macbook pro
only reason you wouldnt is you cant afford it

i sound so big headed there but its the truth

Any recent Windows laptop with a SSD boots in single-digit figures (seconds). The SSD only cost £72 too.

I can afford a hell of a lot more MacBook Pros than a lot of people here (Yes, I sound like a spoiled brat, sorry I have money) but why would I spend thousands of dollars to get a MacBook Pro if I can spend $400 - $500 to get a Windows PC and Dual boot Linux or have a standalone install of Linux?
My Laptop turns on and is fully usable within 30 seconds. It has a slow HDD.
2 of 3 of my roommates have MacBook pros. One of them bought it because "it looks nice". He has no idea what he's doing when it comes to computers. The other one got it and now hates it because he saw me using Ubuntu.
Windows = Basically guaranteed supported software
Windows = Gaming
I use Linux for programming and classes for university.

rekt.

i agree mac sucks for games but the main point is school/college.. but everyone has opinions/preference.. that was just mine, i'd recommend a macbook pro like mine over any over laptop for school/college use

i did also get rekt.. gz hobo.

SSD ftw

[Dr_dog]

SSDs in laptops are fine when going mobile. Even i got 2 128GB SSDs in my toughbook. Saves your battery bit more as it dosent have a motor to spin the hard drive. Also isnt so fragile if you collide the laptop with something.
Macbook might do the thinkg for your school. BUT think about when the school is over. its useless because it cant run anything useful. Apart from some video and audio tools
I'm personally running just plain ubuntu with gnome desktop on mine.
