Laptop Research & Shopping

Sam and I spent most of our date time look­ing at lap­tops. Yes, we’re finally replac­ing the one that died last sum­mer. Yay!

Any­body have any strong rec­om­men­da­tions or good/​bad expe­ri­ences to share? Knowl­edge of any places that give “edu­ca­tional dis­counts” that aren’t just “steer your stu­dents to us and we’ll give you a lit­tle lower price on your own machines” deals?
