Laptops are the perfect teaching tool for students. They can handle countless tasks and perform many different functions that allow students to consolidate all of their class assignments and home studies into one place, which simplifies workflow and increases productivity.
The two most important things to look for in a laptop students are portability and battery life. This laptop will likely be transported in a backpack or shoulder bag from class to class, then you'll probably need a system that is lightweight and easy to carry. There is no guarantee that you will have access to an auxiliary power supply in your classroom or on campus, so you probably want a battery that lasts up to several hours per charge.
Desktop real estate can be limited in your class, so you want to make sure your laptop is compact and economical in size, preferably around 14 "x 10" in overall dimensions.
As far as specifications individual, you can get by with most base configurations. A 1.66 GHz processor, 512 MB RAM, HDD 40 GB and a standard DVD / CDRW drive should suffice, but you may wish to upgrade certain components depending on whether you want to use your laptop for all extracurricular activities, such as games or multimedia.
Unless you intend to do more high-level networking, or unless your school requires domain-based authentication to access the school network (check with your IT department), Windows XP Home Edition should more than meet your needs for an operating system.
Finally, you'll need some software Office suite to process and edit your reports and class assignments. Microsoft Office Basic will be able to handle most of your needs, however, if you plan to create a slide-show presentations or website creation, you want to go with Office Pro.
These are the main things you should know and consider before buying a student laptop. This is a overview. Feel free to make additional customizations if you have any special requirements for school.
