So I was able to engage my father in discussion and he agreed to give me $1,500 to a computer. I need your advice on what I should get. I am 20 years old, a college student who is a Business Major and has 2+ years left to complete the degree (not including Graduate studies). I live in a small town house so space is limited.
I know for the same amount of money, a desktop would be a great choice. But a laptop has mobility, which would be immensely nice to have.
I do the basic internet (e-mail, social networking, etc.) and watch video/music. I may dabble in coding and picture editing, or anything else that strikes me as fun.
I would love to get an i7 920, as it would be technologically relevant for the next 3-5 years. I am an Intel fan, so unless it's magical, AMD is an unfavorable choice. Oh, and before you ask, I am not open to OS X.
So... What do you think? If you find a good choice, please link me.
