The factors you would need to
consider when buying a PC or Laptop for Applied Psychology. First of I think a laptop would suit the Applied Psychology course more than a PC. I think a laptop would suit any student over a PC for the main reason which is the size and the ability to carry it any where you want.
The size and weight of the laptop:
The size of the laptop you choose is very important because as a student you will have to carry your laptop to and from college everyday, so preferably a small sized ultra portable laptop. One of the most important factors is the weight of the laptop. Its important to compare the travel weight , not just the system weight. The travel weight includes the laptop itself and the power adapter plus the bag.
The Hard drive:
For the Applied Psychology course it is important to have at least 40mb -100mb as this course involves doing work in Photoshop and its files tend to take up a lot of space and as students we will have a lot of work to save over the four years.
Internet Connections:
With free wireless internet in IADT it’s important that the computer you chose has Bluetooth module and Internal Gigabit LAN.
Think About
Part of the appeal of a laptop is its ability to travel with you, so battery life will play an important factor in choosing which computer you buy. Make sure you choose a machine with the best battery life (minimum 4 hours). Especially for people who travel from long distances on a Sunday night and have last minute work to do for Monday morning, a long life battery will enable you to get your work done while your stuck on the bus.
What's The
One of the most easily damaged components in a laptop is the laptop battery. You So its advised to check out the battery price of the laptop you intend to buy. They don't come cheap costing approximately 100 euros. It is also advised to protect your battery's life span by charging it up fully, unplug, then let it run down and recharge again.
Do You Need Extended Warranty?
For students I would advise them to get extended warranty because laptops can break easily with all the carrying around students do with them. If the laptop breaks early in its life, you will get a new one replacing it.
