I REALLY REALLY need some advice.
Well.. ill be going to UTM this fall and im living at home.. busing there half the time, the ride takes 1/2 hour total (2 buses).
I just got myself a compaq 14 inch laptop (1.80ghz, 60mb hard drive) for a low price of $899.99 plus tax from Best Buy. (the model is Compaq v2305)
im not sure if i made the right decision. My mom said..to pay more and get a better one, a PC, large screen (she always worry ill go blind when i watch tv series and movies on it), faster (a lot faster).
Ok. my question is wether I should get rid of the laptop for a better specs pc?
but ill be giving up portability.. the thing i need to know is if the laptop will be really useful or not? Im going into Commerce by the way. how many times do you think ill actually need to bring the laptop to school (to work with friends.. for like a CASE STUDY for example) in one year?
is the protability aspect worth it for me to sacrifice speed, larger screen?
(i rarely watch movies on my computer.. sometimes i watch dramas though. The ting is i noticed the graphics for games isn't that spectacular because the video card included is not that great.. on the laptop i mean)
please help! Im going to be stuck with my computer for the next couple of years.. I don't want to regret my choice!!
thanks in advance.
