How To Buy a Laptop for School Students - Ideal Configuration

This video will help you pick the right laptop computer for school that has enough RAM, hard disk, screen space and processor to fill your needs.

1. Battery life is important especially if you are carrying your laptop around with you all day. Some laptops can run up to seven hours on one battery. To stay unplugged longer, buy a supplemental battery or look for a laptop that can store an additional power pack.

2. Laptop screens continue to get not only bigger but better with hi-resolution color and LCD now common features. Bigger screens are nice to look at but they also mean heavier loads, shorter battery life and a bigger price tag. Middle of the road is a safe bet at 14.1 or 15.4 inches.
