Re: The Ideal Law School Laptop
Thoughts on an iPad in addition to a laptop? My thinking was easy and portable to bring to class for notes, and can save $ and hassle on books with any e-reader app.

Just a heads up if anyone is interested in getting a monitor. 25" 1080p LED for $150. Cant beat that.

I would definitely recommend using an iPad in addition to a laptop.demarco5 wrote:Thoughts on an iPad in addition to a laptop? My thinking was easy and portable to bring to class for notes, and can save $ and hassle on books with any e-reader app.
Although I don't believe most legal textbooks are available as eBooks, it is extremely helpful in classes that are PDF heavy (where there is either one single class reader in PDF form or a whole slew of PDFs).
I've always done all my PDF reading on iPad.

thanks guysDoorkeeper wrote:The S Series is also pretty damn good if you're not looking to spend that much. Mine was like $1,200 last year. It's great.Jaeger wrote:Sony Vaio Z series if price is no issue. Get one with an ssd. I have been salivating. Plus, buy a PC, get an xbox plus windows 8 when it comes out for $15.
It looks like you can get a pretty nice one for $899 now. Damn.
i saw the Z series and it started at around 1500. that is pretty expensive .is it that much better?
the S series seems a bit cheaper. is there any particular one in that bunch (or any other series) that one can recommend? i can do up to 1000 and maybe a lil less. if its great yet cheaper thatd be awesome too tho
thanks all!

Re: The Ideal Law School Laptop
A laptop would be better for taking notes in class (and is already portable). E-versions of law school textbooks are rare and ebooks are generally more expensive than used copies anyway.demarco5 wrote:Thoughts on an iPad in addition to a laptop?

I just got some Asus Zenbook on Microsoft Store.
$799 + free XBox = $860 - 10% using Discover - $125 (selling XBox) = $630
pretty excited
