Does anyone have any advice about purchasing a new laptop? I will be attending University of Miami in the fall.

I, myself, am a mac user, and have decided to splurge, if I go to UM, on the 30" studio display, so I can occasionally enjoy class from my bed.

The one beautiful thing about having your birthday on December 25th. Santa has to think big.
My belief in our destiny to be roommates is now stronger than ever. But why limit yourself to only if you go to UM? Splurging should not have such limits.unfrozencaveman said:I'll probably be at Miami in the fall as well, and I think, as long as you have a decent processor, and a good amount of memory (for all of those taped lectures...), you should be ok.

Big envelope. Have you called the office to see if a decision was mailed to you? Not everyone has been hearing with the rest of their interview group, so you might want to check. And you should probably get it over the weekend, if so. I'm sorry it's so stressful :/...believe me, I know. But don't sweat it, everything will work out okay. Especially with a 30" studio display.unfrozencaveman said:Burnsy, Pitt is killing me here.
Did you get a big envelope or a little one?

Or are they more streaming video, where you don't really download them.
(ummm technical lingo is eluding me here, hopefully someone gets what I mean)

It would be like owning one computer that was a Mac and a PC!
