Laptops
The world is making a big shift from home PC’s to portable laptops. Laptops are simply more convenient than the big and heavy PC’s of old. College students are rarely found not owning one. Making trips to the library with a laptop is more common than checking out a book for a college student. Also, students are very rapidly venturing away from taking notes on paper while in class. They are starting to carry laptops to class for taking notes, thus cutting back the expense of buying paper notebooks (which just might save a lot of trees) and lots of pens. Laptops are not all that expensive. A good one can be found from about $400 to $1000. This is about the same as a good home PC.
