Hey there.
I am currently looking for a new labtop, and since I am in college right now, I have the right to buy one of the following three labtops with a great discount, and since I don´t understand much of their features, I would like some recomendations.

Computer 2

Please tell me the pros and cons of each, what is good, what is bad, what could be better, etc.
Are any of these even considered "good" for the time we live in currently or should I try to spend a little more money on something better?

Well for starter's what is the price on these or what is your budget? I personally would recommend a better brand. I have never heard of computer 2 or 3 and I don't think acer builds a quality computer's. For college your big concern should be battery life, if they don't list it use bing or google to find it.
 
Spec wise - I believe 2nd one is the best.
However, I have never heard of Insys. Acer provide good value for money, but not for great quality.
 
I just found other four.
