I am going to be purchasing a laptop for college and I dont know what size to buy. I probably wont be using it in class, just in between them maybe. Also, my main source of confusion: this will not only be my school laptop, but it will pretty much be my computer for everything. (I have a home PC but its always being used by someone.) A big concern for me is the 15.4" don't have the 10 digit keypad on the right side of the keyboard (nice for math homework!), but i noticed you can buy seperate ones. But would that be annoying? I am very confused! Please tell me what you think!

  1. since ur gonna be using it for college i would say get a 15. cuz i have a 17 and its pretty tough to lug around. 15 would be more suitable for portability. but if u dont care about portability then get a 17


  2. I would say 15.4 The size doesn't really matter, but the performance. Also, the 15.4 version would be more portable. Im using a 13.4 laptop right now, and am preety fine with it.

  3. I have a 17 inch and sooo glad i din't get smaller....

  4. If you use it  in school,, you want it to be easy to carry and put in your bag pack and so on...

    a 17" laptop is not very convenience to carry and constantly take out and put back in for each class also 17" takes too much of battery  use also space ,find at the most something 14" or so or else you're asking to carry your desktop around with lighter weight..

  5. Most laptops have a function key that lets you use the normal keys as a number pad.  It works the same yet saves space.  

  6. if youre taking it around with you, get a 15, and if its gona stay in your dorm or w.e then get a 17 inch. because you can use it for more things.

  7. since your going to college you will probably want to use it for a while without it having to recharge to quickly since the 17 inch reduces battery power quickly...i would go with the 15.4 inch...and no i dont think it would bother much

  8. 17
